I got the red

think
much of it at first but ended up in hospital for four days


This comment has made me curious. I had drummed into me from
childhood on, that a red stripe moving out from a skin puncture was
REALLY serious and not to be ignored and I'm sure you know that too.

What were the circumstances that led to you ignoring the warning?.

I'm guessing - and it really is just a guess - English climate and lack of
many *seriously* poisonous plants, insects etc.
