Does anyone remember the last time a UKC grammar pedant wrote a sarcastic post that wasn't itself an example of Muphry's Law?

Oh how true. I acquired over 30 bites in one evening. Little gits!

I remember them but forget how bad they can be in Scotland.

They are back out. I've not had them as bad as they can be, but definitely around!

The words of the eminent entomologist Father Jack Hackett come to mind;

"They'll lie in wait like wolves"

Wolves don't lie in wait, they pursue you relentlessly in a pack for miles and miles. So yes, just like wolves.
