Fucking things I googled English Mosquito, and I had them in my room the other night!!! They are so loud when the lights are off and I had to find them and kil them before I could sleep! They fly direct to your face and ears aswell!! Fucking things!! they're bigger than the ones you get abroad too

UK sucks, esp with a pond. Get loads of the little buggers.
As Root says, worst time, lights of, bzzzzZZZZZZ BZZZZZZ. light on, slipper out, wack wack wack, then spend 5 min killing everything lol.
Worst was Yosemite national park in USA. Within 32 minutes Donna had 38 bites, and I got about 16 bites. We bailed on doing an 8 hour walk up the mountains as we got half hour into it and were so badly bitten, we actually ran back down the hill to the car Not a good time, Donna reacts badly to bites
Then at a friends last night my best mate had a huge bite on his foot

The thing is they don't die, if you hit them and they fall, leave them for half hour and they're back in the air!! you have to squish them proper

Somebody told me that you cant hear the mosquito flying normally. Its only when they have already fed and are so fat with blood that they are too heavy to fly so you can hear the tiny wings working overtime.
Dont know how true that is but it makes sense to me.
Didnt realise you got mozzys in england they are a pita on holiday.

not heard that one before but I know some people have "sweet" blood and others "sour".
I know I have sweet blood because I'm always getting bit by every fucking thing
