Is a ladybird the same as a ladybug? We wish on them here for good luck. We try to make them fast wishes because ladybugs have a bad rep for pooping in your hand.

Don't nettles sting?

They are one and teh same and we do the same here. They are considered lucky - not least for their good work i the garden.

Oh yes nettles sting and these nettles are right outside the shed door. I couldn't bring myself to cutting it down!
