With a reasonable turnout of 88 for such a left field question, the responses to last week's Fun Online Poll were as follows:
Have you noticed more midges than usual this summer?
No, fewer than usual - 42%
Yes - 36%
No, same as usual - 22%
That's me told then. I could have sworn there are/were more than usual, perhaps I was jsut unlucky this year. Or maybe it's very localised - more in some areas, fewer in others?

They list five such nasty diseases/pests, which one do you think sounds scariest?
