by an anonymous lady!

We were taking a walk along the canal at the base of Canigou and saw many of the caterpillar nests in the trees – we didn’t know what they were until we saw your article in PO Life.

Actually the reason it was helpful to me is a tadge embarrassing, but has helped with diagnosis of a rash that I developed later that same day.

Please don’t mention my name…if you decide to give walkers a warning – but I snuck behind a tree for a sneaky w** – and my nether regions must have come into contact with some of the caterpillar hairs which blow around.

I was in agony for a couple of weeks until I saw your posting – and it helped the doctors by giving them a diagnosis. So – please let ladies know that if they need a pipi stop ‘dans la nature’ at this time of year,  they might be better just to cross their legs!
