On starting to unroll the net (an authentic fishing net from years ago), in front of the pulpit, I suddenly looked down at the floor, and there marching across the carpet were a whole army of woodlice!.... they`d obviously got into the net whilst it had been in the shed. So what to do about them before they got loose and invaded all the church, I could just picture them creeping on everyone during the service! The quickest solution was to stamp on them. Anyone looking in the church must have thought I was doing a war dance!
Thankfully, I remembered that the caretaker was on the premises cleaning, so he came through with his hoover and helped me unroll the rest of the net and hoovered them all up. I kept my eye about whilst completing the flower arrangement, and during service this evening, but thankfully didn`t spot, or feel(!) any.
Here is the arrangement, I don`t think you can see any woodlice there!

That's brilliant, you really have made it look like the prow of the boat, and the flowers are beautiful.
I'd not have stamped on the woodlice, though. I like woodlice. I'd have spent ages gathering them all up and let them go!
