arrrrhhhh - Just a quick note about one of the VERY few downsides to life in Cyprus - insect bites - and I'm one of those sweet blooded unfortunates who attracts them !!!! - so now here we are end May and they're biting again - forget sleep - middle of the night and can't find the repellent and what's more - I have sustained the WORST type of bite -yes indeed, the dreaded ' bottom of the foot' insect bite nightmare!!!!!!!! - what do you do?????? To scratch adds to the itch factor - to leave results in prolonged burning sort of itching.
It's not mosquitos, if it were that simple I have one of those very romantic net arrangements which hangs from a hook above the bed - No no no, it's the sneaky little noseeums. - as small as a pinhead but with a bite to rock your system - and you don't even Now Ive been advised by a local farmer to rub Zuvaneer of whisky all over my body - MMMMMMM - KINKY CONVERSATION????- local medicine>???? - seems like an awful waste unless it can be injested through the pores !!!! - Anyway Iv'e purchased ELEPHANT SPRAY today - don't ask!!!!!!!!apparently it will repel all potential biters - including elephants????? - I think I'll spray, and then sleep lightly in case I get trodden on in the night!!!
