    My ankle is starting to do a good impression of a war zone:doh:

    First there was the mosquito bite, which got infected.

    Then something 'orrible bit me next to it that brought up a big red welt.

    Then last night I woke up with a terrible itch there, I knew I didn't dare scratch it so I put some Eurax on it & lay awake till that kicked in. Didn't dare go back to sleep in case I scratched in my sleep.

    In the cold light of day, i've got a huge cat scratch next to the bites:doh:

    The cat thinks anything moving under a duvet is a fair target:doh:

      Ooh I have an allery to cats although I love them & we had cats for years..!! :doh: If I am scratched or bitten I have to take anti-histamines... Sounds like that is what you need to take for a few days Zigs as they will help your bites too... :dbgrtmb:

      Put some Windex on it Zigs old chap :lunapic 130165696578242 5:

      Truthfully though get some anti-histamines in for future use. They do stop the itch as my family suffer with hay fever and I do not. As Marley says, you could have an allergy to our feline friends.

        I've heard lots of arguments after people have imbibed quantities of beer.
