Ant-iclimax

There hasn't been much sight of the ants.  An hour ago I noticed a few ants huddled nervously around the ant trap but there have not been many.  I suspect that they are coming up through the brick work surrounding the drains, or even the drains as there is a big pit where the drains from us and next door empty and the ants could get there.  This may explain the lack of ants, as I have had the washing machine and dishwasher going all day.

Also there is a phrase in the Bible, 'Go to the ant, you sluggard.'  Today I have been far more slug than ant.  Try again this evening and tomorrow.
