I have to admit I find that odd. Admittedly, I grew up in Germany, but I thought stinging nettles were pretty ubiquitous everywhere in Europe.
I think Wei (did I get that right?) hails from more exotic climes than Northern Europe though.
There's not much to fear in the UK but itchy rashes tbh, with the possible exceptions of Lyme disease and Weil's disease. And the nettles really don't sting if they're cooked or blanched for eating :-)
