tick remover
This is something I have been meaning to buy for ages now but not got round to it. Any one got any recommendations for which removal tool to go for?

Wife's a nurse dealing with traveler / tourists health. She got me a set of these after having to remove one off the the old chap:

Not just regular tweezers but special ones with a sharp and angled end to get under the little buggers.

Picked up one of these before a few days wading through the Lakes, thankfully not had to use it yet

Re: tick remover
Tick Twisters are great, and just a tiny bit of plastic, so really light. Been using one for years (mainly on the dog)
