From todays Sunday Times Travel section:
'A British tourist on an excursion designed to overcome her fear of monkeys has been savaged by a gang of macaques. Dee Darwell, 56, from Cambridgeshire, travelled to Monkey Island, off Phuket, to overcome her maimouphobia, but collapsed after being set upon by the primates, one of which left "a deep, deep hole pumping blood" in her arm. Ms Darwell, who attributes her fear to an "evil" chimpanzee owned by her father, is warning tourists to Thailand to stay away from the monkeys.'
I believe she has now gibbon up on looking for a cure.
