Tea? (Part 2)

[Arch]

Haha, its in the woodshop so it will be making little spider furniture.
The bike workshop is just outside the door though so I will see it it is up for a little bike with four sets of cranks and pedals.

Sweet!

My Mum said that watching the Conference Bike being ridden looked like a spider pedalling madly.

But furniture. Imagine a spider footstool!

According to Google if you attack the tick in anyway, it regurgitates its contents, which is more poisonous to the animal. Would applying vaseline be classed as a attack.

My neighbour who has a dog (and who walks in the same field at the back of these houses) says his dog has not had ticks, but suggests a vet needs to remove it.

I'll double check, I don't think it's classed as an attack but let me see

This was getting more complex that I thought it would be, so I have started a thread about it.

 

[TheDoctor]

I so needed to see a photo of a tick.
I got one in Ireland a few years back, and it had swelled to the size of a grape when I found it.
Finding this attached to some of my favourite and most personal bodily parts did not improve my sense of equilibrium and well-being.
*shudders*

 

[Speicher]

Yes, I agree that could be somewhat disconcerting.

 

[TheDoctor]

I'll say. Scared doesn't even begin to cover it.
Anyhow.
I currently have a glass of Kiwi Sauvignon Blanc. 'Snice.
I made poached pears in Gluhwien earlier, and they were nice too.
Peel pears, simmer in gluhwein till cooked.

The food bit not the tick bit!

You have body parts that are less then favorite and personal?


I've not had any ticks on me, thankfully.


I've just evicted another 2" spider, this time from the shower curtain. It wasn't impressed with being dropped in the (empty) bath first before being put in a jar to take out side.

Your inundated with the crawlies at the moment!!

They're amazingly nice for something that's so simple. I use gluhwien from Aldi (which is the nicest I've ever had) and pears which are too crunchy to eat as is. Portuguese Rocha ones are good for this - they don't fall to bits when cooked.

Sounds tasty...though I'm allergic to wine so can but dream...

 

[TheDoctor]

Hmmm. What component are you allergic to?
By which I mean - are you OK with grape juice? Alcohol in general? Does it give you a mild rash or anaphylaptic shock?

 

[ttcycle]

grape juice is fine - not alcohol as can drink spirits (beer and wine reactions are varied)

Usually rash and itchiness.

Does my head in things I really like I'm allergic to now- the wine I can do without and am not bothered about but the dairy one really does annoy me as I LOVE cheese and other dairy goods but best not to push the breathing/tightening of lungs as I don't want to end up with a response so large that I have to carry an epi pen.
