All I needed to know and more …
… about tropical ulcers. Look them up, they’re gorgeous. I have one the size of a 5c coin in the middle of my right calf.
Fortunately we met a couple of Doctors (literally a couple, husband & wife) at the airport this morning who prescribed & issued antibiotics on the spot.
I’m now keeping it out of suspect water (practically every body of inviting water within spitting distance), bathing it in saline solution and crossing my fingers that the ab’s will kick-in quickly enough to allow me to swim on Tuesday. A bit of a long shot.
On the bright side we’re settling in to our beach front villa. Kelvin’s practising his swimming & I’m off to have a massage after lunch.

Just to make you feel really warm we are currently sitting on 6.4c with a wind chill of -6c but didn’t get as much snow as expected – Dunedin got a load, we just had some on the Port Hills.
H1N1 Influenza now reached 100+ cases in NZ – 14 new cases in Chch last night. Some primary schools closing some classes – Wellington DHB have opened a CBAC.
So as you can see all is quiet at home !!!
