It's alright thanks, been keeping it cleaned and wrapped so haven't been inspecting it too frequently. Looks fine now, might pop by the GP tomorrow just to be sure.
A piece of advice I can definitely offer, if something similar happens to you, get your leg waxed right away. The repeated application and removal of plasters is the worst part of the whole situation.

This is why it's good to shave your legs. Also (more commonly) for road rash - when I had my nasty elbow-breaking off onto tarmac a few years back I was very glad I'd shaved my legs.
There's no telling this to MTBers of course and to be fair road rash is less of an issue :)
I suspect you should have tetanus if you've not had one within the last ten years. It's recommended for bites that are deep or dirty.

@mmccarthy, how's the leg?
