It reminded me of this paradox: "A snake tells you that all snakes are liars. Is he telling the truth?"

I love that one, Nick, and even though I have an almost pathological hatred of lying, so won't participate myself, it will be in my mind how someone might be tempted to say that they are a liar if someone says that they are a compulsive liar and can't believe a word that they say.
Your riddle will take some thinking over I think, so I will have to have a look at it tomorrow. I have voluntary work in the morning and will not have time just now.

I'm getting this impression that it is something you might find outside, and maybe the bite bit is not as it first seems, but I'm not too sure what yet.

Am I right in thinking that the bite bit isn't an animal?

So it is a plant then. What about bramble, nettle, or roses?

At night they come without being fetched. By day they are lost without being stolen. What are they?

You're perfectly welcome, Sidney, and totally correct. Now it is your turn to set a riddle.

Well, I'm better at guessing than setting, but here goes;
An old riddle;
What you caught, you threw away,
What you didn't catch, you kept.

What sort of thing wouldn't a person want to keep if they caught it? Some sort of disease?
