...and put trousers back on! Before you attract even more flies.

The ride home was aweful, it sounded like heavy rain on my helmet and jacket, only there was no rain... only flies! :x

I washed my car on Sunday, its now covered once again in a wall of dead insects.

Glad I had glasses on riding this evening, I could hear the little b*ggers committing suicide on my glasses.

I wash my car and bike at the same time though!

I nearly fell off my bike in a coughing fit yesterday. Made the fatal mistake of opening my mouth to say hello to someone coming the other way, and had my throat peppered with damned flies.

(i'm pretty sure it's not the girls round here though, they tend to be slightly cleaner than that )

Drove threw a swarm on the A11 to Thetford, sounded like the car was being machine gunned down.
