Any idea why there's so damn many of them this year? Is it just me or is it
a widespread thing? I came in late tonight and about 6 of them got in the
front door with me!!


Lots around here too (London) - they've been keeping my Nepenthes well
fed. They do seem to be quite abundant.

Not only that but spiders! This definitely has been the summer of
arachno-plenitude in my garden. In my neighbourhood for that matter.
Don't know waht could have brought that about, there doesn't seem to be
fewer birds about.

Thes.
