Took the opportunity for an early evening ride through the essex wilderness this evening, down quite quiet country lanes bounded by fields of gold (thanks sting,,) but i just lost track of the amount of flies and bugs that i ended up swallowing.... then i got to thinking that they have all come from the surrounding fields where they had been feeding on the muck that had been spread ...... i might as well have just cut out the middle man and picked up a cow turd and chomped on it all the way round!

    There's wilderness in Essex ?!?

    Live, wriggling protein mate with a healthy dose of L casei immunitas thrown in. Don't knock it. Just think how many midges you have to swallow for a decent belly full.

    When cycling around at dusk I've been trying to get in the habit of breathing in through my nose and exhaling from my mouth.

    I did hit a bat that flew over a wall the other week. It hit the corner of my helmet and my sunglasses with some force as we were both travelling quite quickly.

    Same here in North Herts, grim, load of fields being turned over, driving them all out I guess.

    Swallow a spider. That'll sort it. :wink:
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    Swallowed something very 'minty' coming back up from Crewe on Friday... It went straight in, stuck in my throat and after a few moments hacking on the side of the road it released some minty taste... couldn't get it up, so just swigged water... nomnom!

    If they were hovering over the road it's likely that they were "midges" and so have not had a diet of poo.


    The older I get, the better I was.

    He swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
    I don't know why he swallowed a fly - Perhaps he'll die!
    There was an Essex bloke who swallowed a bird;
    How absurd to swallow a bird.
    He swallowed the bird to catch the spider... this could go on...

    I always have to stop and check it's not one of the balls from my tongue studs before disposal. Learned the hard way after swallowing a couple of the damn things.
