I've been stung a few times, once in Greece when I felt a tickle on my back and went to scratch it. It was one of those huge things, the Turks call them Donkey Wasps, boy did it hurt.
The second time was in Turkey when a wasp flew down my dress at a very post restaurant. The dance I did was enjoyed by many diners and will never be repeated.
Secondborn had a wasp in her jeans, lord knows it got there. She was standing on the croquet lawn at a large house (our band was going to perform at their daughters wedding in a marquee). It stung her so many times she just whipped off the jeans and ran towards the house with me following her trying to hide her backside from being viewed by all the wedding guests.
Never been stung in the peace and quiet of my garden though.
I agree with Nut...A good remedy for bee stings is apis mel. It is available from Holland & Barratt. One or two little pills relieves the sting pain in 5 minutes. It is homeopathic too so is very gentle. Wasp stings are a different matter....

I know you said you got stung last year but have you been stung before that?
You've exhausted my interest in your stings.

It is homeopathic too so is a complete waste of money.
Fixed that for you.
