Sorry Briar for going off topic.

We went to pegasus tropical in sept 2005 and i got bitten horrendously. Although it wasn't until i got home that it was at it's worst. Thought they'de all gone, but after 2 days at home, they all came back the size of saucers, swollen, red, rock hard and mega itchy. Doctor said, delayed acute allergic reaction. Had to have steroids and extra strong anti histimine, but they didn't stop them itching. Was so bad i was sitting on freezer packs to numb the itching and crying like a baby, not attractive i can tell you. Looked a bit like the elephant woman, as i'd been bitten on the face and neck. Had to have a week off work. (pity)
If the mossies like you i don't think anything will stop them. i had every spary/cream/oil available on, and to honest, they're not usually interested in me. I usually get the odd one but saw people with 50 plus bites. I only had 15 but it was the allergic reaction i had that was awful.
I would love to go back here, but the mere thought of those little blighters bring me right back to my senses.

hi all,
if the problem with mozzies is so bad at this resort why doesn't the hotel spray,the hotel were i stay use this method every night,theres a gang of blokes walking around the complex looking like ghost busters,the smells not to nice and theres thick smoke everywhere,but it does the trick,i haven't even seen one mozzie let alone bitten by one,

do we need jabs to go to turkey. no one has told us we do but a friend thought we would so now i'm not sure if we do or not first choice haven't told us we do?

we go in 3 weeks 6 days (i'm not counting really i'm not)

hi all we go on sat so will post reports on the mozzies, we brought the spray from one of the shops when we were there last year and it worked wonders,cant remember the name its a white bottle with a picture of a black fly/mozzie on it.

My GP recommended several vaccintaions for us and acouple for the kids to be done 2-4 weeks before travel.

The hotel staff drive around the perimeter every night spraying stuff for the mozzies but they still attack you someone said pp is built on old swamp.

hi foxy,
that would be why then (swamp),have a great time from sat.

we had a jacuzi suite and had a kettle in it with cups ect,went in sept 2005 and did have a mossi prob,i had plug in things in room and of a night put this awfull sticky gel from boots on,but i didnt get bitten once,tried there mossi wipes 1st night and got bite,got used to the sticky feel after few days but was worth it,was boots own stuff in grey tubes..

hi what are the jazzcui suites like? ie how many rooms? tv's etc
we have 4 suites booked for 28th may can't wait.

jacuzzi suites are great there is bathroom quite reasonable size with jacuzzi bath i loved this i lay in it most nights for an hour before going out for tea, there is one bedroom again quite large with king size bed and a lounge with double sofa bed quite comfortable there is one tv in the main area
hope this helps

we are having a family suite this time and soooooo wish we were having jacuzzi suite as they are fab

thanks for that.

one more for now. what sort of clothes do women wear in the evenings? i'm finding it hard to find things i like? is it dressy?

When we went in June 2005, the Jacuzzi suites had a "No Children" policy. When we saw that that was no longer the case, we jumped at the chance. 8 weeks to go now and all are getting excited already!

i didnt find it dressey, i wore 3/4 jeans/trousers with tops or normal trousers and tops people were very casual
hope this helps

we found our bed a bit hard,good thing about the suites is the kingsize bedroom is seperated from the louge area and has airconditioning in it,which works really well,but have to say we found the sofa bed more comfy and slept on that most of the week,as for dressing up,its mainly casual ,but there are some noce restaurants you can eat in where u would need to dress up..

Just had a call to say TICKETS are ready to picked up

TURKEY here we come!!!!!!!!! Hope your ready for us???????

:hyper :hyper :hyper

Our tickets came yesterday, not long for us too.

Going on monday and have a jacuzzi suite booked so will tell everyone all about it when we return the following monday. Weather is looking good for the week! I'm so excited! (:

Ooh the weather wasn't looking great when I looked, but it'll be better than the UK it seems next week, but the temps were about what we've had recently...

another question

is there tea/coffee making bits in the jacuzzi suites?

do we need towels for the pool?

is it best to take euro's or pounds?
