When you don't use the moped...

Nobody I know in real life follows me on blipfoto, so I'm going to use this space for a bit of a rant today.
This is the place in Portugal that we share with another couple. Of course, everyone is getting older and some things maybe don't get done. I can't tell you how long B's moped has sat on the front drive, unused.
As you can see, about a million wasps now have their home in it, which apparently nobody noticed until we did, yesterday. So the guy has come and is working to get rid of nest. Meanwhile we are indoors on beautiful Tuesday afternoon while a million angry wasps buzz around looking for new home and I feel a) angry that B, who owns the offending moped, has just left it there and b) resentful that I had to say to everyone, no I really think this is a problem and call pest people and stop M from attacking it with a garden hose and c) I'm aware that I should embrace this as a part of life's rich tapestry but today I wish we had a characterless little apartment with other people around to deal with stuff
Rant over!
