Sorry DJ. We've got plenty of them up here in Sydney. Good for nothing little buggers.

Fortunately, I haven't been stung once in my two years of SUPing where as I used to get a couple of nasty stings each summer when I was shortboarding. I just paddle over the top of them now and try not to fall off in the middle of a swarm.

Hopefully it's a one in a hundred year event.
