Now, I'll grant you that there's no love lost between me and mosquitoes, and I'm glad I don't live near any midges. And black fly season is finally over here, and none of the cats seems to have fleas at the moment.
But damn, I hate those deerflies. Especially when I'm bicycling. ![]() ![]() |

New rant : what kind of sadistic b*st*rd programs a flight to leave at 6 in the damned morning ???? even leaving aside the fact that 6 o'clock is so uncivilised an hour as for the mere mention of it to be absurd, this means you have to be at the airport at 3 in the morning : even worse cruel and inhuman treatment. but that's not all : the métro only starts running at five in the morning. so in fact, the choice is : take a taxi, which between the distance and the night tarif will probably cost more than the actual flight (may as well take the taxi all the way to the end destination, at that price), or take the last métro the night before, arrive at the airport at 1 in the morning, and just wait there until 6. buckets of fun !! after all, the only thing less sinister than an airport in the daytime, is an airport in the dead of night, right ??? ![]() and while we're on the topic, WHY in the name of god would anyone want to make a stop in detroit (USA), if they are flying from Toronto (Canada) to Edmonton (wait for it... still Canada) ??? not only is it not on the trajectory, it's NOT EVEN IN THE SAME COUNTRY !!!!! gaaaah !!! you know on second thought i think i'll just stay home, until i've saved up enough for my private jet which will fly where i want, when i want, leave at civilised hours, and take no unjustified detours. also i would like a helipad on the roof to so i don't have to take the métro to the airport, please. |

I believe that lavender is, in fact, a deterrant to small annoying insects i.e. midges which is why some folks burn some on their campfires or sprinkle some essential oil about.
Or so I've been told. |

Poor Zelda! I share your pain, my sister.
I remember well having to tromp through Rome in winter in the dead of night while lugging our bags because the taxi wouldn't come at that hour, to catch a train at Termini Station to go to Naples. Lots of characters fitting Geoff's terrorist description sleep in and around that station. Why can't public transportation be more accomodating of our individual plans? ![]() |
