for the love of peter how many of them?
me and the now ex gf were on holiday in taormina in sicily, a lovely place for all that know it. we had been merrily swimming and enjoying frollicking. after an extended period of said frollicking by the waters edge i decided to go for a nice long swim in the bay. i got about a hundred yards out and then suddenly felt an excruciating pain in my left chest and down my left arm. being a med student i know a bit about heart attacks. i truely thought it was an early grave. as i started to contemplate my end, whilst trying my best to swim back to shore. at 50 yards from the shore i had no movement in my left arm. it was only as i got in closer to the shore that i realised that the horrific pain which was rapidly increasing all over my body was actually the result of a mammoth smuck of jellyfish. the little pink pulsating bastards. by the time i reached shore i was covered in red welts and in a world of pain. on the plus side i did learn that the italian for anti histamine is "anti staminchi".

ps murder of crows
exhultation of larks
smuck of jellyfish

pps they must have been scared by both length and girth as they didnt go anywhere near it, so i won't appologise.
