Invasion of thrips
« on: August 05, 2009, 16:51 »
Anyone else being tormented by thrips (thunderflies) at the moment. I don't know we get a few hours of warm, dry weather & out they come. I've had such bad luck over the past 6 weeks that it doesn't suprise me really:-

Badly sprained my anlkle the week before we went camping in france - had to put up the biggest tent you've ever seen with my OH.

Fell down the pool steps & grazed the shin of my other leg.

Other leg to ankle's knee went.

Gippy tummy.

OH got prickly heat.

Car window bust - couldn't lock the car.

Huge storm nearly blew tent down

IBS sparked up over last few days

Rai, rain, rain &

NOW THE bl**** THRIPS.

Did you get the idea that possibly the trip to France shouldn't have happened?  ;)
