Man of Honour
I suspected a queen wasp but I’m not sure. I’ve never seen a queen wasp lay on its back tripping balls. It got up and flew away after I tried to talk it into moving on.
Hornet? Buzzard?

A Cockchafer is a beetle. That's a fly.
It's a Drone Fly. Harmless.

Indeed, a dab of Nivea can avoid friction and chafing problems in the danglies, just dont tell the
wife I've been using her expensive creams on me bawsack.
I bet it's not got a single wrinkle though!

I think it's an upside down horsefly. The six, coloured as they are, abdomen sections typifies it. I've just been cleaning out the cattle troughs and a few have gotten intimate with me, damned things
Yep, I'd say horsefly. There seem to be loads of them around at the moment, and I'm usually their prime target and get torn apart. It doesn't help that it seems the one thing I'm allergic to is insect bites!
It looks like they bite. I’ll employ a little more assertiveness when I ask the next one to move on.
So I’ve seen 5 of them, all laying on the ground on their back. I give them a nudge and they fly off pretty fast. I thought they were dying but they moved pretty quick to be on deaths door.
