I have flowers in the garden re-budding that should be dead and long gone, what is going on this winter.
Still a poor summer though?

Have a good look at them (the ladybirds not the fit bird....
) and then go on the Internet and make sure they are not Harlequin Ladybirds. You really do not want those little ******* multiplying in your house!

Think they were a bit too small to be Harlequins, but then they could be baby ones LOL.
I hope they don't eat the fabric on the awning (outside).
