Thanks Ladies
Honeyb - You're right - again. It's definitely leaking, the dressing is a fetching brownish colour (sound familiar?) Don't think it was a horse fly, it happened in the house and we would have noticed one of those. OH had a similar bite on his ankle, he burst it early on, but it did keep on leaking.
Silverlady - OH was right (along with you and Honeyb). He will never, ever let me forget it
We don't know what's biting us, but there are some very small things flying around, they don't look like midges or gnats though
Am definitely going to try and get hold of some TCP, asked at the chemist last Friday they didn't have any, but I think Sainsburys may have some.
Off to see the nurse tomorrow, that will be interesting...................
