    Hi Sophiesmum,

    Mouth ok, feet ok, no flu symptoms. Thanks for the tip, will check the NHS direct for info. I was so laughing to the foot and mouth as I just handed in this week my assignment of notifiable diseases :rotfl:perhas browsing in defra website wasn't that healthy.

    Could be dermatitis from cleaning products - have you been using any new products when cleaning animals out at college?

    Janey _ large tins evaporated - nestle - are 50p in asda, they haven't got smartprice at moment but when they do is usually 29p large tin;)
    Reduce,re-use, recycle.

    Thanks Sophiesmum. Answer is not that I know of and anyway we are required to use gloves when doing any duties. I have called NHS direct and the nurse will call me back at some stage.

    from the terms and conditions....

    A ten times wagering requirement applies to all Bonus money issued by the St. Minver bingo network before a player may withdraw winnings made on that bonus money. In addition players must have deposited at least £10 before any withdrawal can be made.
    This means that if you are issued a £2 bonus on registration then deposit £10 and receive a £10 bonus (making a total bonus of £2+£10 = £12), you must purchase TEN TIMES the bonus amount in tickets (in this example £120) before withdrawing winnings.

    This looks like a really dodgy way of sucking people in. Who on earth can afford to spend £120 on bingo! Please take care...

    it doesn't actually say you have to deposit £120..... I'm assuming that playing any winnings made on your bonuses (plus anything made on the free scratchcards) would also count towards that :confused:

    but if anyone knows better, then please feel free to shout me down on that one, as I'd hate to mislead people with the way I'm reading it.

    Marru - it sounds like it could be contact dermatitis. Are you are using any new household products/handcreams/detergents even eco friendly ones? It is also possible it may be something relating to your course. Do you use any particular cleaning products you haven't come across before on your course? Some "industrial" cleaning stuff isn't kind to your skin. One of the ones we use at work causes contact dermatitis if I accidentally get it on me so I have to be really careful using it. Actually it could be the protective gloves :eek: Do you use disposable gloves? Latex gloves (usually creamy white, very strechy) are rather renound for causing this in some people - particularly powdered ones. They have been banned by my Uni due to this so we have to use nitrile disposable ones (come in a mutlitude of colours, not very stretchy) as these cause far less problems. E45 or chemists equivalent emollient cream might help...

    Wish me luck - After lunch I'm off to do my 1st ever Mystery shop :eek: I'm so nervous :o Why , oh why did I agree? :eek: :rolleyes:

    Hi Whitewing I know how you feel about gloomy weather. Just to let you know that this is the one. I bought it last year and feel happy with it.

    It has gone up a little bit since then.
