Ah, our oldest companions. Traces of bed-bug have been found amongst Neanderthal remains. I guess one of their survival strategies has been that they are not any known disease vector. Ensure your host remains available. They'd probably have been fully paid up members of CND if only they could have read the pamphlets.
I haven't seen any putative explanation for why the out-break in Paris has reached such spectacular levels though EC restrictions on Pesticides, Budgetary restraints and that French inclination to ignore anything that doesn't have a significant impact on moi may all be contributors.

Hello,
I have reserved a night in an Albergue and the confirmation says Fecha de entrada: 2024-06-05. In the UK we would write this as 05-06-2024, is that what this means, 5th June 2024, I am...
