Have you ever caught a fly in your hand? I did last night. Quite pointless really, since the first thing I did was shriek with disgust and shake my hand vigorously to rid myself of the sensation. The fly lived to see another day.
I know someone who did that - someone who had a very gentle nature but who had an absolute hatred of flies and fleas. This someone caught a fly like you did and pulled out its wings and said to it: "fly now you bastard!" It was in Afrikaans: "Vlieg nou jou bliksem!"
I'm an 'at home' mother of 2, ex-South African living in New Zealand, work-from-home-in-the-middle-of-the-night graphic designer, hoping to get fit again one day soon.
