Ghost on the Coast aftermath ... the first three accounts :-

I'm recovering from the dreaded hash leg rot. I noticed red spots on Sunday
and by Tuesday afternoon the resulting volcanos meant I could hardly walk.
Initially thought to be sleeping spider bites from Borneo my military medic
recons it is a plant allergy from Finale Ligure. Likk'mm had it too so if
no-one else has it other than the other hare Wellington or off-trailblazer
Cunninglingus from Berkshire then it is from the aborted but not scrubbed
out trail of 200 dots after a bar which the former two and I inadvertantly
laid and the latter mistakenly followed to the end and then beyond. If
anyone else got it and weren't on this falsie, then it obviously was
somewhere else. In any case two anti-biotic tablets will get you walking
again. Another 5 hopefully able to run at BerZuBa this weekend.

TD>I've just been to the doctor as my legs came out in pusy boils. He knew I
TD>had been in the woods and brushed against some plants before I said
TD>anything. Six days worth of antibiotics and cream for 2 weeks. 
TD>OK?
        You, too? The scratches started irritating me enuf on Sat. night that I
        couldn't sleep much, then I noticed it was pussing on Sunday 'round
        noon. Started to hurt and was pretty swollen/ stiff so journey home was
        somewhat uncomfortable. Fortunately I go out with a nurse, so we got
        some antibiotic cream on the way home. To the doc on Monday morn -
        wounds lookin' better than Sunday eve, but he said onto the antibiotics
        and cream/bandages until Friday. Got hit in the left knee and ankle.
        Feelin' fit now.

Guess there must have been somethin' nasty headin' down them animal trails by
Gus' house, eh? Or perhaps goin' down on wounded knees in the= circle after all
them dogs had slobbered all over the ground might not have been so wise.
Hmmmm.....

............................................

Thanks for the great weekend. I made some serious f*ck ups though. I walked of
with the keys to Rosita's. If you can give me an address I'll post them back to
her. I also lost my return ticket. It was the opening of this new airport -
Malpasa. What a night mare trip I had getting back!

To start..

I realised when I got in the car to leave that I only had two hours before the
flight left!  Once I got to the airport with about 20 minutes to spare I was in
panic mode. Could'nt find the f..... car rental return. Drove back out the car
park up a one way street to ask the car park attendent where the rental returns
are. Cars where flying all over the place trying to dodge me coming up the
street the wrong way. The car park attendent did'nt know where the car rental
return was! Great. I back out of the narrow bit by the barrier, quite fast,
sling the car round to do a 180 on the spot and smash the f...... sign post
/posts not sure how many - down to the ground. The attendent is yelling
something in a languge I do not understand - I yell back that he should blow
me- I wheel spin off back into the car park. I park the car and go to the Hertz
desk and tell them where the car is. He tells me that they'll charge me for
another day. I tell him his mother f*cks n*g*ers. He gets pissed off. I lob the
keys into the office and leave. Swearing.

I get to the check in desks - utter chaos. Realise I have lost my return
ticket. The ticket I had was for a return from Lenate, Austrian airlines have
apparently (so they told me) made all the arrangments to change the ticket at
the airport. The flight has been delayed - good news. Alitalia know nothing
about the new ticket - so I have to by buy a new single one way ticket.

The plane finally left at 01:00 am! Get to the luggage belts to be told they
have loaded no luggage at all in Italy! I got in at 03:00 am! I could have
driven back faster - and had some baggage with me.

Went home went to bed. Pissed off! Worst trip I've had in ten years.

Anyway... Sorry about the keys, as I say, if you let me have the address I'll
send them back ASAP.

Regards No Mercy Master

See you at Berzuba.
