Gnats

I have took advantage of the milder dryer weather today to push on building my Patio wall. Every ten minuets or so I get plagued with what seems to be a cloud of gnats, they buzz in my ears and land on my glasses, I have to put my hood up although it is warm, anyone else got these blighters?

Re: Gnats

They're even worse here Spitty, they plague me every 5 quadrilles or so.

Re: Gnats

I've let them win on this occasion, I have to leave for work a 3.15pm so have called it a day Patsy. I think I need one of those hats with strings and corks on, i'll have to see if Bruce can send me one.

Its a good idea Spittie, no one will recognise you under that hat

Re: Gnats

Alan, my son gave me a hand earlier, and he was left alone, he is picking up the Spitty traits, he said "There's no flies on me dad".

Re: Gnats

Try singing a Gnat King Cole song Spitty.
I don't think I'd know the difference between a Gnat and a fly to be honest, not seen any strange looking flies around here lately.
Maybe it's a sign of a good mild Spring on the way.
