      I'm sitting beneath an umbrella outside a cafe in a small town in Germany, luxuriating in that particular joy of being warm outside while rain pours down. And beneath the umbrella with me are about 7 wasps, sharing shelter from the rain & hunting around for sugar.

      I'm enjoying the company of the wasps & marvelling that I can do so! Not long ago I was terrified of wasps. If there was a wasp on the upper floor of the bus, I'd have to go downstairs. But on holidays this year, I lost a lot of my fear.

      Me & @martinpi were happily & foolishly braving a hike to visit 5 different chapels near Provesende in Portugal... in 36°+ midday shadeless sunshine. We ran past a house with a crazed Rottweiler, we snuck through a raspberry farm, we drank all our water.

      The map of the hike showed a fountain at the next chapel we'd get to - chapel #3, "Chapel of the Holy Fountain." So we get to the chapel... and there's no fountain. We're slightly anxious (it is damn hot & we are far from home). But! After a bit of hunting, we find it. Hurrah...

      ... but there's a twist! The delightful little fountain is down in a hollow in the ground. & surrounding it drone a lot of wasps. A LOT. Now, I'm no wasp-counting expert, but say >50. So the precious water is right there. You can imagine how tempting it was to a parched throat.

      There was only one thing to be done. To enter the most zen state possible and GLIDE to the fountain. To hunker down with the wasps as if I were ONE OF THEM. To send psychic waves of friendly energy to the masses in my hair, on my arms, circling my face. And it worked!

      The most delicious, cold and holy water you can imagine. Two large bottles thereof. & not a single sting! & I no longer have that reflexive INNER (& SOMETIMES OUTER!) SCREAM when I see a wasp near me. Here I am now, chilling with my wasp friends, pleased & proud 🐝🐝🐝🧘‍♀️🐝🐝🐝
