Once my mum told me that if I saw a wasp, if I stayed still it wouldn't sting me. One day, out in the garden I was approached by three hornets, which I thought were wasps. I decided to stand as still as humanly possible, only the damn things wouldn't go away. I stood there for over half an hour until the hornets got bored. I'm glad I got over that one.
