Survival of the fittest in action.

They were the smaller slower bugs, the bigger faster ones survived to breed. Soon bugs and wasps will evolve to be the size of sparrows and capable of 150mph and we will know who to blame!

Nigel, get your ears syringe ASAP. Some bugs are so small they make it through the 'labyrinth' to your ear and, just because that irritating tickling sensation finally stops after 5mins (and just before you're compelled to pull over and start banging yourself on the ear) doesn't mean they found their way out again. There could be dozens of corpses in there too mate. :lol:

Mr. Spock is my role model so be advised; I possess no (discernible) sense of humour.

It's all VFR (DCT) round here now. STILL missing my 1100s tho.
