    Thanks for helping me deal with the mortification Pastures:rolleyes:.

    I almost wept this morning. Doctor told me they knew it wasn't grubbiness, just me being ..vulnerable... and that people who have persistant athletes foot often also scratch their bits...:eek: because they don't put socks on before pants . So if you have filthy foot hygeine, put socks on before pants.
    I had athlete's foot when I was about 14... obviously wasn't touching my bits though as it was contained within the toe regions :)

    Stop touching yourself!

    I will. The ring worm is on my leg, just above my ankle. TBH, rubbing my leg wasn't really doing much for me.:o

    Actually you may have a point there. I wouldn't mind her bringing 2 cats for dinner, but maybe not 17 of them!

    Makes a change from turkey though :confused:

    Is this woman for real? We moved down to a Somerset village some 6 years ago and were instantly "adopted" by our lovely neighbours. Please don't judge Somerset by this woman! If she is lonely and isolated then it is by her choice- and having seen what she has written about her neighbours in the past I don't blame them one bit for giving her a wide berth.

    And being entirely !!!!!y - has anyone told her that her hair and make up is at least 20 years out of date and far too harsh for a woman of her age?

    I knew she reminded me of someone! Lesley whatsit from Birds of a Feather who had the Trinny and Susannah makeover and looked tons better.
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    What about what can be transferred to the bits - you know, from the feet the other way around? :eek:

    Mil had ringworm once. GP suggested she caught it from birds that had landed on her washing while it was hanging out on the line.

    LONELY PEOPLE REMINDED THEY DON'T HAVE TO SPEND CHRISTMAS WITH LIZ JONES printButton.png emailButton.png 22-12-09 A CHARITY campaign for people spending Christmas alone has reminded them they could be with Liz Jones instead.

    This is how
    The organisation, called It Could Be Worse, seeks to raise the spirits of those who find themselves single during the festive season by asking them to imagine being trapped in a remote country house with only the unbearable Daily Mail columnist and her awful cats for company.

    An ICBW spokesman said: "Imagine sitting with her in front of a roaring fire as she bleats on about herself for days on end but there are no heavy logs left to smack her over the head with.

    "Then one of her familiars - sorry, cats - would wander in and you'd think thank !!!!, here's somebody else for her to talk at.

    "But then, somehow, the cat starts talking, going on and on and on about how difficult it is being a cat in this anxiety-fraught modern age.

    "And you start clawing at your face, pulling away big chunks of flesh in sheer desperation as she ignores your screams and launches in to some self-regarding diatribe about her sodding ex-husband and how her rustic neighbours hated her just because she wrote a national newspaper column about how they all smelled of dead pigs.”

    He added: "Come Christmas day you'll be on your own watching Thunderball with a glass of warm lager and a microwaved turkey-style dinner and thinking 'thank Christ for that'."

    The campaign leaflet also offers a series of alternative nightmare Christmas scenarios, including being turned into a labrador by an evil wizard and then adopted by Ben Fogle or being given a Michael McIntyre DVD.
    I came in to this world with nothing and I've still got most of it left. :rolleyes:

    Mrs B used to work with said Ms Jones on a mag many moons ago and concluded she's off her head.

    Ahem, I could always rub your leg for you, see if that did anything for you?;)
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.
