I got a fly in my ear and was almost distracted enough to crash...

If the bicycle was invented tomorrow, it would be seen as the solution, not the problem

Come to the north east, its been cold and wet all summer, no chance of swallowing flies up here they have all migrated for the summer. Wink

I've heard that a significant number of flying insects are water breeders so wet summer - more puddles mean more bugs in the air and thus in your mouth.

Another observation: Bumble bees really hurt when your doing 40mph!
