Death in the Evening

    There's been a fly in my kitchen for nearly a week now & now he's dead.

    For 7 days, the fucker has been the bane of my life. Every time I've sat down to eat, he's been hovering around the table, buzzing past my ear, landing on food, pissing me & the missus off no end.

    "It's not fucking Africa we're living in", said the wife the other day, as the peace of our evening meal was interrupted once again by this unwanted invader.

    I tried everything to get rid of the cunt... from whacking him with a newspaper, to opening the windows to let him out & even took the drastic step of having a shower just in case it was the smell, but nothing worked.

    At one stage he flew out the front window, only to reappear 2 minutes later through the back one.

    He was really taking the piss.

    A few minutes ago, I was having a cup of tea & a smoke, reading through the threads, when he landed on the side of my cup.

    That was a fatal mistake. I covered the cup with my hand, then shook the tea, rendering him helpless. And as he wriggled in the half drunken warm tea, I took a kitchen knife to him & stabbed the fucker several times before washing him down the plughole.

    Some people wouldn't hurt a fly.

    I would. I hate the cunts.

    Nice title for a book.

    You should leave orange or mandarin peel in your bin for flies. Those little midges light up like a christmas tree when they are feeding on such matter and are easy to spot and kill as a result

    Ah, I see your point. Yes a fly on a nuclear submarine could be very annoying.

    You could write a book "How to Kill A Fly in the Longest Way Possible"-it took a week of swatting,window opening, tea drowning, stabbing and plughole flushing. Wow...he sounded like the terminator fly.:D

    I have gathered from the ads on tv that the flies in africa magically disappear when you donate. So next time you have a fly problem, you should donate to a charity maybe.

    How long are your weeks?

    Also, you suck at killing insects. Did you not have issues previously with a spider?

    When I have a problem with flies I just break out my pistol. But my house looks like swiss cheese now :(

    Yeah, but catching them to tear off the wings first must be an awful struggle.

    That fly was somebody's mother..

    Did ya ever see 'The Fly' though? Go around the house with a magnifying glass and check for tiny little messages. (no I don't mean fly-poop)
    The windows especially, areas of condensation. See ('help! ') anywhere?
    If not, you're in the clear.

    Ah, you wouldn't even need the lighter. Just spray in the general direction. No living thing can survive for more than a few seconds in a lynx filled room.

    That's mad. I just checked the window. There was a note... it read -

    "I hate life. I used to be in a world famous singer. People adored me. Then I died from a drug overdose.

    Then I was re-incarnated as a kangaroo. Again, it was the drugs that killed me, only it wasn't my fault that time.

    Now, I'm a fly, stuck in someone's kitchen. I wonder how it will end this time?"

    Only one?? I had hundreds of the persistent feckers!!!

    Try waking up in the morn walking to the kitchen preparing a meal and you're immediately attacked by an army of them. Only consolation is retreating to the bedroom to eat your brekkie. Lunch was at work but when I come home, I could not eat dinner, I had to live on takeaways as the kitchen was unlawfully occupied . :mad:

    I was a refugee from my own home because of flies and the OP thinks he had it hard? :)

    I had to fight hundreds of them per day for nearly a month, don't I deserve a higher medal of honour? ;P :D

    I didn't allow my fly to dictate to me. I still ate where I wanted to eat & with persistance, I hunted it down, trapped it like a caged animal & slaughtered it in cold blood.

    I did the manly thing. Not run to my bedroom & hide from the reality.

    If anyone needs to grow a pair, dude, it's you.

    They were eventually. I had just moved into the place and the experts aka Pestguard or whatever their name was sorted it.

    You see, you battled one fly only. You are a trainee in the fly extermination squads, you need to upkill to multitask at killing hundreds at once.

    I might apply for a job with Pestguard when I get a few more kills under my belt.

    Err, thousands of kills you need!!]

    You're just a junior trainee in fly combat still learning the ropes. A simple fly spray won't help train you nor will about 20 bottles of flyspray which I had used.

    You need man attitude in nuking the invaders, we're talking a mini-holocaust in the home, you ready for that yet?:confused:;)

    I was wondering what was going on and then I saw your location. The flies are just attracted to all the bullshit in that area.
