The itching will stop when they hatch.

Attacking you while you are asleep and motionless is pretty much the same as when you are fishing  whistle:.....perhaps they just prefer the indoor temperature  cloud9:

Pets all gone.
May have been when I was working in next doors garden - the other day I came in and found a grasshopper up my sleeve.

Itching - tried hydro-cortisone but reverted to germolene.

And it's still bloody itching, maybe incresed alcohol intake will provide slumber tonight.

I am not in the habit of carrying nail varnish around with me, despite anything that TMR might imply from my ownership of a manbag!

My mother used to buy this when we were kids. It was green then,  I used to love the smell of it.  It doesn't smell the same any more. sad24:
