Mum was livid to see me. This wasn't because she can't stand the sight of me, but because I hadn't told her I was coming and there were no pork pies in the house. I assured her I didn't like pork pies, and we set out for a nice walk beside a local stream.
A few yards into the walk, as you'd expect on a winter's afternoon, the subject of flying ants came up.
