    Thanks Perdita. Just took shower #3, and had a couple of pain pills. Feeling better now.
    At least I know not to go to that particular blackberry bush again. My hubby said once the rain stops, he is going to pour petrol on that particular spot, and set fire to it. He said I`d lose those blackberries, but he`s worried that the yellow jackets will bury their nests underground which is much more dangerous. He said it`s better to be safe than sorry.
    I don`t care about losing blackberries as I won`t go to that particular spot again. In the autumn i`m going to cut that particular bush out. Not going to tempt fate. By the looks of it, I`ll be getting a bumper crop this year, so losing one bush or two won`t matter.
    And this weekend, friends of us sold us their old upright freezer, so I have a perfect place to store them. As well as my fridge freezer I have a deep chest freezer, so I`ll be really set now., Will have to move my Welsh dresser to the other side of the wall in the kitchen to accommodate the new freezer though.

And with yellow jackets, even after the attack, the venom buries into the skin and still feels like stings. I`ve had two showers since 1pm, and I`m still feeling the stings on my legs and arms. I had to take my sweatpants off on the front porch because there were yellow jackets all over it and inside.
    OMG I'm horrified at your experience at the hands of the yellow jackets!!!

    I hope you're feeling a bit better now. I'm still traumatised by being stung by a wasp as a child so I dread to think how you're feeling (though you're obviously much braver than I am!).

    Coincidentally, I listened to some Meatloaf (Dead Ringer for Love) and Queen (Bohemian Rhapsody) this afternoon after you inspired me. I'm not a great music lover and can't remember the last time I had my mp3 player out.

    After years of listening to a variety of music growing up (my faves were U2, Pet Shop Boys, Duran Duran and Michael Jackson) I've settled into preferring the music my siblings and I were brainwashed into loving by our parents - Simon and Garfunkel.

    Thanks Dazzle,
    Something traumatic like that would scare me as a kid too.
    I`ve gone blackberry picking a few more times and avoided that particular bush like the plague. I`ve picked 4 gallons of blackberries so far, and have them stored in my freezer. I would have picked double that quantity by now. But because of the heavy storms here, the rain is hitting the ripe berries off the vines before I have the chance to get to them.

    This morning I was singing along to ELO (Ticket To The Moon, Rockaria) and Queen (Don`t Stop Me Now, Killer Queen, Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy) whilst picking. I was hoping my voice would scare the yellow jackets away LOL

    Some good choices there Dazzle. I was kind`ve brainwashed by my parents music too. Yet to this day I still love to listen to Cliff Richards early songs. Songs that he sang even before I was born, but still love `em regardless. Constantly and The Next Time being my two faves.
