Wishing you a speedy recovery. :thup:

Why are people asking what it is when the wiki link is above, and we live in a world with google?

Getting dengue fever makes the 'I went to Swaziland' story even more awesome than it would be normally. Wp.

retired_nauticaperson

doesn't that come back? you have it once, it clears, then it comes back again? Nasty.

Still, you survived. What doesn't kill you, etc.

I wouldn't say makes me stronger. Makes me feel weak as a kitten would be more on the money.

Thinking over the Swazi thing, I went 'cos my sister got killed out there. And I came back with this lurgy. And the HIV rate is 38-39%. So maybe it's not the safest place.

Mind you, when we went round a hospital there we saw a guy having his hand bandaged. He'd be in his '50s but thin and strong. It turned out some kids had shouted at his bucky (pick up). So he'd stopped, and when they wouldn't admit which of them had done it, had just hit them in turn until he'd broken most of the bones in his hands. Vigilante justice ftw.

He hit kids cause they shouted at his car?

Idiot ftw
