I'm going to cry myself blind

The recent hot weather (I do seem to keep going on about it) seems to have brought a plague of insects to York today. It felt like I was swimming through them on the way home this evening. Not particuarly nice.

When I went for a run later on I decided to put on some insect repellant since I'd be going through some countryside areas. This was a good idea in principle, but where it fell down was that when you sweat, the repellant on your forehead starts to run into your eyes and that stings a bit and makes it hard to see. Then you run under some traffic and die. I didn't do that last bit, but I coulda done. It was that close.

My own fault for putting it on my forehead, I suppose. Oh well, Test And Learn.
