Ended up with more fleas than a camels bum she did, then they turned septic. Necrotising fasciitis - very nasty. Oh and dont drink the water.

    I'm just saying like.



    You forgot to add, enjoy your hols.

    No, 'salopettes'.

    Not 'slapperettes'!

    "Salop + pets". Very good.

    Salopettes? Isn't that a form of italian sandwich. I'm sure your other half won't mind a BLT.

    Thanks MM, I forgot about renting.

    Oh for heavens sake, it is only a minor detail, nothing to spoil the holiday.

    I worry too much sometimes.

    If you are lucky, somebody in the group will have spares.

    Alternatively you can probably hire some, depending on the resort.

    If you're going to France, decathlon is good for cheap kit.

    Yes, but for probably 4x the price I could get a pair at TK Maxx.

    Hopefully something will turn up (says the born optimist)
