In Morocco when you're sitting outside having a drink you always stick a glass on the table with sugary mint tea and mint leaves, so the wasps get in there and stay in there and enjoy themselves being waspish, and they don't bother other people.

This thread is now rather like that. Enjoy, and hang around here, friend wasps. Stay as long as you like. Permanently perhaps...

Meanwhile the people who enjoy the Mudcat and are interested in helping it along had better mnove on to other parts of the forum, starting with that thread Big Mick is opening up.
