The first person to tell me to shut up and stop repeating myself wins a coconut.

Please don't take the chances of getting Dengue lightly. When non hemorrhagic it is a nasty disease but when hemorrhagic it can and does kill.

The Dengue mozzies bit in the daytime unlike other varieties so use a tropical strength repellent morning and late afternoon at least. Even if you think you are a person who never gets bitten still use it because apparently some people get bitten but don't get the nasty itchy little lump and are unaware of the bite.

The wet season was late coming this year and is also late going so the nasty little critters are still breeding. Please be careful.
