Re: Being eaten alive.

I didn't mean to sound dismissive, you are totally right and we should report it. Just it's quite a bit of money to be risking having taken away, as they would probably blame us for the bugs if they found out we had an infestation. Going to just have to shut up and get on with it for the next year u...

Re: Little things that really annoy you!

People sending you pictures of their children, ok, one is tolerable but having them sent EVERY christmas/easter/birthday/school photo/''x's first poo'' etc :shock: . My sister keeps sending us framed photographs of her awful evil child at every opportunity. We have a vast collection of them now, thi...

Re: Being eaten alive.

Our tenancy agreement is until September 2012, all signed up (we were made to sign two years agreement as they said if we didn't then they would be bringing in people to look around all the time without having to give us much notice), we tried to get out of here at Christmas. I'm really not sure if ...

Re: Being eaten alive.

Yeah it's rented, I really wish we had taken photos when we moved in. It was absolutely disgusting! A centimeter thick of grease/food on the kitchen walls and ceiling, vomit on the curtains, the inside of the cupboards were coated with sticky slime and pubes :dontknow: , no hot water, no fire alarms...

Re: Being eaten alive.

Ok, so I said they didn't like ankles :pale: after cleaning yesterday they obviously got annoyed at me! I have bites all the way up my thighs now, and worst bit is there's a cluster of them on the inside of my left ankle, literally hundreds of bites in one spot, so many that the skin has broken and ...

Re: What are you preserving?

I've been making preserves if that counts, not because of a glut though unfortunately, just cause I like them and I'm quite good at making them! Made green tomato chutney, rhubarb and ginger jam, mustard, and honey mustard.

Re: Being eaten alive.

I think I might be being eaten by a combination of all of them :pale: while I've been cleaning, I've found more of the mite things which have now migrated from his cupboard, they're teeny tiny and hardly visible like little specks of dust. I also squished a horse fly which left a big splodge of bloo...

Re: Being eaten alive.

:pale: guess the consensus is fleas then. I read somewhere (though for the life of me cannot find the article now) that chiggers (mite larvae) feed on thin skin such as shins, and are more likely to eat females as they're tastier/more delicate skinned. The pictures do look a lot like what I found in...

Re: Being eaten alive.

They don't seem to like ankles and feet, most of the bites are on the sides of my shins all the way up to the knee. :scratch:

Being eaten alive.

For the past hmm, well for the entirety of this year really, I've been getting bitten every day without fail. I only seem to get bitten on the legs though and was wondering if anyone else was getting the same thing? There are a couple of possibilities of what this might be: 1) When we moved in (Oct ...

Re: organic mayo

Hi Russ, how long will the mayo keep for? I've been trying to find recipes and all of them say ''will keep for up to 1 day in the fridge'' :scratch:
