Leg problems are a shit! I got a dose of cellulitis which had me laid up (literally) for a month during which time my favourite aunt and my best friend died. I missed the chance to say 'bye and attend the funerals of both of them - it still rankles.

Try this for self portrait of a leg, now that is cellulosis!:
Dry books of tactics are beneath the notice of a man of genius, and it is a known fact that every British officer is inspired with a perfect knowledge of his duty, the moment he gets his commission; and if it were not, it would be sufficiently acquired in conversaziones at the main-guard or the grand sutler's.

Last time I saw that sort of leg it was being removed by a vet!

That's it! Except that mine was mostly open sores that wept a really yucky load of gunge. It's also bloody painful!

When I got it I had just finished my Armd Recce cse at Warminster and went straight onto the Engr Recce Cadre we were running at 26. Got in my doss sack next morning jump in the panzer and my thigh hit the side of the seat- Ouch says I that feels strange. It got worse during the day and I started running a bit warm. By the evening I was in bits and went to Med Centre. Diagnonis of the obvious. Anyway two weeks later, during which a baby MO decides to stick a needle into my leg to get some fluid(!) the SMO cuts the fecker open and stick his finger in to "pop" the cells or something like that. Once they had plied me off the ceiling I duly fainted!
