We had to be TB tested last year. Because someone died locally of it. And it was centred around the pub where we used to go to do the pub quiz a few years ago

We were clear thankfully, but there were a lot of people that had it here. It wasn't a big deal. Just antibiotics.

I got stung by a bee that had got tangled in my hair while I was playing on the beach when I was about 9.

I could hear buzzing and then my friend shouted that I had a bee in my hair. I panicked and tried to knock it out and it stung me badly on my neck :-0
