I had the most fantastic dream this morning. I was keeping a huge colony of some kind of long legged black ants which were from tropical Asia (possibly army ants) and the colony had produced hundreds of alates.
These were actually fighting each other for dominance and they were in all the chambers and covering the entrance holes to the nest, so naturally I rushed to get a camera as I wanted to post them on the forum; but the camera battery died as I tried to take my first photo of them.
So then I got my camcorder which had been hidden in a cupboard, but had to move a large chair to get to it.
Eventually I got back to the nest and started filming away merrily. I was getting some great video of these very large winged ants, when suddenly a voice called to me "Come on, get up you lazy thing." It was Jen standing by the bed and it was 8 AM, so it had just been a dream all along; but what a great dream and one I did not want to wake up from.
