If you can't beat them...

Tomato flower.

An annoying day!   We had booked to have a parcel collected by Parcelforce.  When I made the booking it said on the website between 9:00 and 14:00.  It is now 20:45 and it still hasn't been collected.

The blip is obviously, well I think obviously, a Tomato flower.  The flower in shape and structure is typical of other members of the Solanaceae, think of Potatoes, peppers, Nightshade and Aubergine.  It is interesting that a number of the Solanaceae are poisonous to varying degrees.  The green on potatoes, potato "apples (the fruit from the flower which looks exactly like a tomato) Deadly Nightshade to name just a few examples.
