    Thumbs down Darn Flying Ants

    Got bombarded by them on my walk back from the doctors this afternoon. When I got home I found they'd also invaded the house - although not as bad as last year as I had already put down ant powder in anticipation.

    I've noticed quite a few flying ants last night when in the garden supping my ice cold beer and enjoying the bit of sun we had yesterday.

    They weren't flying but looked a bit sluggish when crawling and were generally being scary and threatening me by climbing my chair.
