Hahahaaaagh Steve, your description of this made me laugh! So kind of you not to kill the wasp - and I hope the sting site is no longer painful.
Anyone had any bedbugs? We haven't, but apparently they're all over France, and might invade UK too. I had some many years ago in the seventies when I visited Morocco all alone. I stayed in a little B&B place in Tangier, and noticed bedbugs on the bottom sheet. I did what travellers were advised in those days - you pick up a wet bar of soap and dab it all over the beasties, trapping them. Then you chuck the soap away.
