Front garden

Most of today there have been too many flies about to do anything outside.  Neighbours were cutting their grass, wearing midge nets and drenched in repellant. I could have done with the same, the flies were in my ears, inside my glasses and trying to get up my nose! Horrid!
This evening though, we went down to the beach and collected another couple of bags of rubbish off the shore. No flies at all!
