Has anyone else noticed how few bugs get splattered these days? Years ago a half-hour blast down country roads would leave your front panel and windscreen looking like a Garibaldi biscuit. Not any more. I wonder where they've all gone?....
 
Mine got smothered when I was in Yorkshire but not so much down south
 
Hardly nothing here in Norfolk :p
Not see many wasps or bees abiut either ;)
 
Numbers certainly less around here and they're staple food for songbirds and Swallows to fatten up on before flying off to Africa for the winter. They could be going hungry and might not make it.

They're all on mine! 357 miles from Cumbria to Suffolk and the bumper and bonnet looked like the road to Basrah :arghh:
 
Just come home on my fireblade from North Yorkshire about 120 miles, my visor would normally be covered and there's barely any, very odd.

Had a week on strong anti histamines to put me right
 
Bloody hell that looks sore.

It was very sore. It got me the night before we set off home from the recent forum Euro trip. We overnighted in Dunkirk. I drove home with one eye closed. When we were going through border control in Calaise the guard told me to take my sun glasses off as he checked my passport. He winced when he saw the state of my face. I took that photo the day after we got home and the swelling had gone down a little.

@PHILIP BAXTER It wasn't Jill, she rarely goes for head shots, she usually aims for me nuts
