BASTARD mosquito got into the bedroom the other night. happily swooped onto profligate window-leaver-opener-and-therefore-all-his-fault-it-got-in-in-the-first-place DP, gave him one solitary lousy tiny bite, discarded him and moved on to feast on me. I have about 8 massive bites that have all swollen up and are driving me insane with itching and looking gross.

it's ENGLAND. I don't expect to be bitten by mosquitoes in my own home on a work night. surely that's the sort of thing that you expect if you go on holiday somewhere nice and hot and exotic and worth it?

bah. also, got any good remedies for ugly swollen mosquito bites on hands, wrists and ankles and legs, apart from lady of the night style long gloves and boots??

Ugh I feel your pain. I get eaten alive whenever I go anywhere hot. One little bastard when I was working abroad decided it was a great idea to bite me right between my eyes which looked a little like one of those decorations Hindu people use right over their nose. The kids (and the adults) found this vastly amusing and the lump stayed there for about a week. No matter what I do I cannot avoid the bites. And yes, this summer I have had some from this bloody country too. Fuck. That.
