You are all lucky, as I was allergic to the Avon stuff. That brought me out in a rash before the midges saw me! I was told to take vitamin B1 suppliment for at least 3 months before we went to Scotland on hols. Someone else told me to eat lots of garlic while north of the border. Trouble is it kept the locals away from me as well as the midges!

Thankfully we do not get midges here. A few mosquitos but nothing too bad. I remember when the kids were younger we went to Scotland camping, it was horrendous. We only stayed a couple of days it was so bad . We packed up and went down to The Lake district to get away from them !
