Started three weeks shutdown this afternoon and decided to do some gardening.
Long story short, I was attacked and chased by a bee twice and on the second attack it got caught in my hair (what little I have) and stung me towards the back of my swede. I have reacted badly - hives down both legs and on my forearms. My top lip has swollen as has the location of the sting. This is my worst ever reaction. Have taken two antihistamines and the swelling is gradually going down after approx 30 minutes. I am really disappointed and uncertain as to the future.
I am mindful of the current situation in hospitals and am hoping this doesn' develop into anything worse. Bugger!
