May sound like a daft question, but does anyone suffer from bites etc at this time of year, obviously we come into contact with spider webs etc on a daily basis, over the last few weeks i,ve been getting bitten a lot...

Spider bites? You hoping to re-enact Spider-Man’s opening scene? 😁

Don’t think I’ve ever been bitten by a spider. Mayb the odd midge, but that’s it.

I keep taking my antihistamines until about November to ward off the worst reactions from mosquitos, but these last two weeks the little buggers have had a field day on my legs. Just wait til one of them taps into my varicose vein. That'll teach them.

Regards spider bites though - my friend got bit by a spider native to this country and was rewarded with a week in ICU in a very bad way. She still has something similar to chronic fatigue syndrome five years on from it. With that in mind I'm not so keen to get too close to any of them these days.
The good thing about science is that it's true whether you believe it or not.

Talking of bites....pushing a windows cleaned card through one of those letter boxes where you need to push your hand right in to post it and wham....dog bit my middle finger.
Impossible done straight away, miracles can take a little longer.
