So what are you afraid of or dislike

I dont mind spiders ,wasps ,bees,dragonflies, I am not keen on parasites ticks,kedds and those things that are adapted to fit under the feathers of swifts/swallows etc.
I hate woodlice,nothing seems to kill them they gnaw the tender parts of my favourite iris,
each one seems to multiply just by looking at another.Myson when he was a toddler called them skid-marks when I asked him why he put his finger on one ,pressed and dragged leaving a smear on the path "skid-mark" he grinned

Re: So what are you afraid of or dislike

A morbid fear of Sharks,Sharks and nothing but Sharks.

Actually i dislike swimming in the sea as you can't always see what is below you and the Shark is the thing most likely to come up and bite your legs off..........i know its wrong but i just can't help it.

Re: So what are you afraid of or dislike

Don't like lifts much. Get a bit panicky if they take a long time.
My 21 year old daughter jumped out of a plane this morning for charity. Seeing your own, hurtling through the sky from 12,500 feet, is pretty scary I can tell you!
When we've sorted through the 200 or so photos I'll post one on here. ww

Re: So what are you afraid of or dislike

Moths.
Crane flies.
May bugs.
The odd insects that I've been seeing about a lot recently.
The spider that lives in the cupboard in the porch.

Water.
Heights.

I'm just a big old scaredy cat!

Re: So what are you afraid of or dislike

Horses, I don't mind ponies, but horses frighten me to death . They are beautiful animals but as long as they are on the other side of the fence. It all stems from when I walking through a field a good few years ago and a horse spotted me eating a bag of crisps, well he galloped over to me and pinched my crisps

Oh I know - it is odd! My husband gets impatient with me as I keep buying plants but when it comes to re-potting I can't do it and won't be in the same place as the exposed roots!
