Did you know that when a wasp stings you that you produce an 'alarm pheromone' this is to alert other wasps in the area ...and they come and join the fun.

Yes, I think I mentioned something about angry wasps in one of my posts
I'm sure you've heard of apitherapy, Some practitioners use live bee stings to deliver relief from pain amongst other things

[Margaret Pilkington]

Wasp stings have no therapeutic value, and you can develop a life threatening allergy to them.

son, I have no idea......the machine recognises words, but not context...and I was still coming round when I posted that and didn't spot it until it was too late to change.

You can turn it off, settings-general-keyboard-auto correction.

[Margaret Pilkington]

Yes.....I thought you could.(but have always put off doing it..life sometimes gets in the way of things that you consider are a mere irritant)
It is something that has happened in e-mails to my family in Oz too. When I hasve read back what the predictive text has come up with it has sometimes made me and my sister(the recipient) giggle...but then we both have a weird sense of humour.

[gpick24]

I quite like predictive text, it makes mistakes (sometimes funny like you say) but it learns as it goes. You can also set up funny shortcuts, I've set up on the mrs phone whenever she puts xxx (she puts it at the end when texting the kids) it changes to "ps you smell".

Ok time to stop uploading
and time to go and have a look at the great & varied entries in this competition and pick just 1 to vote on please take your time while looking there are some very nice photos in there

[gpick24]

Not quite the one sided affair anticipated, but if you haven`t voted you`ll not see which way it`s going untill it`s too late.

My votes in - great photos, as always. Hope all these lovely photos attract a lot of votes. They are well worth a 'visit'.

[Margaret Pilkington]

My vote is in.....it was a hard choice. I thought that Frank's dolphin pic was going to be a 'shoe in' .....but the quality and diversity of the pics has been great.
I bet Frank is heaving a sigh of relief.
