Spottier

[were_gopher]

Hal is obviously one of those types who likes to take a germ and give it time to do its thing. Starting from just a few spots on Saturday he now looks like something out of a Warner cartoon that's just had a wasps nest dumped on its head. He also refuses to be painted with Calamine because it's pink. I'm also keeping an eye on his mouth because he says it hurts to eat and I'm not betting on it just being a sore throat from the cough. I'm just hoping that this is all the spots now and it's uphill from here. He's certainly not going to school for a week.

see if you can find a local anesthetic cream - it will be white, fading to clear on the skin, but should stop the itch. "Lanacane" is the one I have for midgie (and mozzie) bites. (I got very badly bitten by the mosquitoes when I was in Italy the other year)

I'll ask Harry to have a look in Boots tomorrow.
