Not showing metal?

This morning's club run from Langham, organised by Judith, was a seven mile largely nettle-free route across fields, around a wood and on the roads, lovely.  I continued to excersise my views on nettles and their place in the general order of things.  I have to say I seem to be losing sympathy and my audience,  so I have decided that I am going to have to desist in future, otherwise I might be on the wrong end of a 'full nettled jacket!'  Happy weekend running all.
