I saw a few wasp-like insects last year (ie black and yellow), but
much,
much bigger -- perhaps 4cm long. Didn't look like a hornet, but I've
no
idea what else it might have been.


What did they sound like? Unmistakeable deep deep drone? That's a
hornet. There's black on them as well as red.

I was putting in a garden today and I found a small nest behind a brusgh
wood fence I had put up some time ago. A can of fly spray dealt to the
wasps
and the boot of my heel dealt to the nest.

or the heel of my boot.
