Oh God....Aussie flies!!! The one thing, and yes I'm serious, that would make me really think twice about going back there. Once they're on your case they never, ever give up until you kill them! If you wear glasses like me, you end up sending them flying off your face at inopportune moments in your desperation to stop them trying to feed from the corners of your eyes!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!!!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!!!

Are they bitey flies / mossies or just annoying non-bitey housefly type flies? Just wondered how much I am gonna look like I have chicken pox!
