I got stung.

There I was, walking down the narrow lane to get to the supermarket, minding my own business, when a wasp landed on my hand and stung me for no reason.

Luckily I don't geta bad reaction but it is still stinging six hours later. No swelling though. I smothered the area in vinegar.

I suddenly realised that the last time I got stung was by a Bee back in 1968, so I suppose I have done quite well really.

If anyone sees the culprit please let me know so I can get my revenge. He is black with yellow stripes.

NO! BLM! Even ones with yellow stripes, (usually down their backs).

Nasty things.

Then again, I'm sure it must have been your fault: swinging your arms in gay abandon and striking it on its poor bottom.

Seriously, though. I have been stung twice that I remember, at least since childhood.

A few years ago I was stung by a bumble bee for no apparent reason. I was doing some sawing outside when it stung me. I can only assume my arm must have struck it.

More recently, on the roof of our conservatory wearing a T-shirt, whilst applying some Flexacryl on a hot sunny day, I felt a sting in my armpit followed by a wasp flying away. I assume it had become trapped and panicked.

Horrible things.

Got stung in October two or three years ago, in the chest, just below my nipple (one of two), felt like I'd been Tasered.

I'm relieved that you clarified that you do have two nipples!

So you have more than the average number of nipples?
