[turienzo's lovechild]

there is no way i'm getting my FAXE now

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

Just went to do the washing up, and there was a dead one in the water

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

Aaaaah!!!! Another one's just come in - it's fooking huge

 

[dingle]

there is one flying above me into the roof then into the wall, i may turn him into a flid by removing his flimsy limbs

 

[Monkey Man]

Oh grow up. They only live for 24 hours -- let 'em enjoy it! If you want to kill something, go for an animal that really deserves it. Like the seagull that has been dive-bombing me on my evening runs.

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

what do they DO?

what is the actual point in them?

do they have a purpose?

 

[Gully]

Strangely there are none flying around my house this evening, which is a first for the last week or so, but I have just spotted a dead one on the kitchen floor.

 

[Starry]

My son is chief dragon fly catcher here. Catches them in tissue, drowns them under the tap and then flushes them down the toilet.

They are horrid. I walked outside on the grass in barefeet and the lawn was covered in them.

 

[Lander]

One just came in to my house and was in for about 5 minutes

 

[paddy]

One in my room at the moment who has taken a liking to Alan Shearer's head!

 

[Silent Bob]

Craneflys AREN'T Daddy Longlegs'.

Or DRAGONFLYS.

 

[British Bulldog]

They give my kitten hours of amusement trying to catch them, The dog has started joining in the chase now. I allways see them things as a sign that the summer is coming to an end.

 

[West Hoathly Seagull]

Yes, we've got the blighters everywhere up here tonight in Sharpthorne. We've also got hornets, in our neighbours' window eaves, and they come in and buzz round the lights. Not that aggressive, though, but a pest nonetheless.

 

[PaoloRossiJohnson]

Just got one in mid-air... Is it double points for that??

They lay their lavae in your lawn and the eggs hatch as leather jackets - these little bastards eat the roots of your lawn - if you want a nice lawn next spring, kill them as quick and as mercifully as you can - no leg or wing amutations please ...
