I work
in an office slap bang in the middle of a field just outside of Brighton. It is very rural indeed and although nicer than some city high rise; rather annoying if you want to pop to the shops at lunch. It really is in the middle of nowhere.

Anyway this means that to pass the time I normally end up gawping out of the windows like some bovine dimwit at all the pretty wildlife.

I've seen rabbits, robins, massive spiders and a stoat which, on that day, was the most exciting moment of my professional career.

We have also recently been infested with ladybug like creatures that I'm told aren't ladybugs even though they look just like them. They are exactly the same shape but are reversed colours; so they're black with red dots. They look like a ladybird's sinister cousin.

Failing this I go onto b3ta and try not to laugh out loud. I work in an open plan office. It can be hard sometimes...

Thats the bugger!
They're pretty menacing looking. If they weren't so tiny I could develop a fear of them
