Waspish Mood!

I've just been stung by a wasp! I'm wearing flip-flops and the little devil got me at the side of my foot. That is the first time I've been stung for many years. It's still sore and throbbing.

I bought a new beach towel yesterday, by the way. I was in central Belfast and I visited House of Fraser, Debenham's and Marks and Spencer. The former two have a very good selection of towels; M&S have a smaller choice, though I decided on an Autograph Collection plain pure cotton velour bath towel in a shade they call raspberry.

The trouble with many towels generally is that they contribute considerably to the weight of one's luggage, given that some airlines permit a mere thirty-three pounds - or 15kg in euro-tosh!
