    On a happier note, and entirely unrelated, I saw a hummingbird hawk moth at the weekend, going about its business. Never seen one in this country before. Maybe I should get out more

    looked that one up apparently it's a lucky omen:

    Hummingbird hawk-moths have been seen as a lucky omen. In particular, a swarm of the moths was seen flying across the English Channel on D-Day, the day of the Normandy landings in the Second World War. These moths, along with other moths, are in the family Sphingidae because their larvae were thought to resemble the Egyptian Sphinx.

    Just read up on them, and they migrate from southern Europe each summer, and numbers vary from year to year. Have been seen as far north as Orkney and Shetland. Might have to plant honeysuckle, they apparently like that.

    There's a photo of one knocking about in Finland and it's perishing there.
