I was changing the bed linen this morning. As I unfolded the pillowslips I noticed one of them had some small brown marks, close together and was annoyed that I would have to rewash it. On closer investigation, though, I found a large, dead ladybird inside - obviously it had flown inside while the washing was on the line, and I had folded it up without noticing. What a horrible way to die 
. I will be pegging all my pillowslips from the bottom in future.
I feel a bit like that when I think of crabs and lobsters being trapped in a lobster pot. But they are so very tasty! 
That's what I do too, indi, and it's most effective done over the banister as gravity helps 
Note to self - must try that!
The ladybird just went quietly to shush-a-byes in a warm airing cupboard.
OMG! Did you iron it?! 
Oh lord, no! Thank heavens I hate ironing, that would have been just too horrific
