I'm not sure if this show was broadcast nationwide but I'm sure you'll find it interesting whether you view it as "informative" or as a "warning "!!! http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/search?q=The%20Secret%20Life%20of%20Midges they're not my favourite wee beasties but thankfully I've never suffered them as bad as some folk in the show ....c'mon the "Skin so Soft " |

I'm still to watch that John but i'm sure we will over the weekend, given the amount of rubbish that will no doubt be on! I think a change of some of the presenters on SW would be a good idea Paula. Dr George McGavin, the entomologist, would be another of my choices. He was excellent in the 'Lost Land Of' series of programmes. |

Dave, I'm sure Paula would have old George down as a "fossil" expert now that she's got the "hots" for Midgie boy !....eh , Paula ...as for SSS , nice to hear you agree it works ....apparently "drowning " the wee terrors still can't get over the numbers involved though ....every man ,woman and child in Scotland can have 350 million of them each ......if they wanted
