And now it looks like it's flying ant day in my back garden. I've just been out to the kitchen to get another glass of squash and could see them in the air, then went for a walk round the garden and there's large clumps of them emerging from nests.

We have had them a couple of weeks ago. Strange thing is that these were walking ants. I usually see them climbing up sticks and things to gain height but didn't see any. Also we usually get birds trying to pick them off either in flight or whilst they are climbing but nothing.

I have decided to ask for a refund. I have had enough. It there was a faster postal service I would have paid for it after all I am paying the postage. I will look for alternatives.

How long have you waited? A second class packet from Norfolk took 6 days to reach me.

9 days. I've waited long enough! It they can't provide a decent service then they should pay for their incompetence. The bosses get paid well but the workers get pay cuts and leave.

And yet more freebies - the Lidl app bakery spin from this morning's shop has got me a free iced doughnut next visit and the £20 Sainsbury voucher from the car insurance price comparison company has also been issued.

Edit - just as I posted this I heard an odd noise from the kitchen so went out to investigate - only to see the back end of the little black cat from the house out the back darting out of the back door. As I was up I have just made this evening's hot chocolate.

Someone on a local facefluff group is asking to borrow a bike to do a charity ride with his kid on so i offered a bike as i was in a generous mood , the one i offered is old and built out of spare bits so i am not too fussed if it gets knackered , of course i would rather it wasn’t but you never know.
