Midge Protection for the G8 at Gleneagles
Given that the entire G8 Gleneagles event is being organised from London, I wonder if anyone has taken into account that after a particularly wet spring, the midges in July should be rampaging around the hotel.
Of course, a swanky big hotel like Gleneagles has probably invested in a few Midgeater machines to clear the entire area of biting insects. But what if they forgot? Maybe I need to email the Whitehouse and offer them a few midge head nets to help keep old Mr Bush itch-free on his jolly to Perthshire's most exclusive golf course (most exclusive in July that is). Perhaps some of the protestors who end up joining the world leaders around Aucterarder would enjoy the anonymity of the midge head nets, perhaps not, but I bet they'd prefer not to be bitten. On the other hand, perhaps we should keep our midge protection to ourselves, and if anyone gets bitten, it'll serve them right for choosing Scotland in July. That'll learn them! Before anyone comments on it, I know the midges are never that bad in Gleneagles - we live just 10 miles away. You can always hope though. Posted by bigcrags @ 3:56 PM
