Don’t walk in the garden in bare feet and step on a bee. Bad for you, very bad for the bee.

Never too bothered about honey anyway. Grrrr.

Not good. First time in years I’ve had one of those. Painful. Remedy?

Pull the remains of the sting out. Scrape offending site with a fingernail. Run under cold water to deaden the area and rinse. Wash with pure soap and water. Let dry, apply sting relief/ anti histamine cream sparingly. Job done!

For people who react badly to stings, seek medical attention!

Edit: and don’t forget to hop on one foot like a village idiot and swear loudly. It always helps

People have been making and wearing shoes for thousands of years for just that reason. And thorns and nettles and broken beer bottles and dog poo and all manner of nastiness.

This is something that drippy hippies forget when they want to connect with the earth.

I had the unfortunate experience of getting an angry, drowsy wasp fly down the top of my dress at Newmarket races one August day. It was a high necked dress so goodness knows how it managed to get in, but the obvious issue was how to get it out again. Well, I got stung multiple times before it escaped. That was not at all fun.

Wasps in August are like angry, drunk teenagers.

Wasps stings are worse than bees because if you can get the sting out from the latter quickly enough the discomfort is reasonably limited.if you treat it properly.

Mrs C actually sat on a big wasp in Skiathos. And it was big. It had a flying jacket and goggles. Well it wasn’t happy and neither was Mrs C. A yaroop special. Obviously somebody getting stung on the @rse is hilarious (had it been a mate we’d have been rolling in the aisles) but had I expressed more than concern for Mrs C, it would have meant returning in a box.

A visit to the pharmacy was made and all was well.

Ouch. Boob stings or arse stings - which is worse?. There's only one way to find out - your missus and I should "fight, fight, fight, fight..."
