Nettles

If anyone ever tells you that grasping a nettle firmly will prevent the sting from hurting you, do not believe them.

I tried this.  My fingers are still sore and tingling half a day later.  I can see a small red blister on one of them.  Next time, I'll wear a glove.

I believe only Murphy Law is reliable here... nettles are forever... at least I read that they signalise a very good soil...but they STING!!!!
