MFD - I know it's probably not really necessary, but I don't want to take that risk tbh, I don't want to wrap her up in real life but medically I'm going to do just that IYKWIM, I just went through too much to have her.

Hand Cream - I got DH L'Occitane hand cream for Christmas, it's made a huge improvement on what they used to be like, he just has a few stubborn cracks now but it's where the fingers bend so he keeps reopening them at work.

af - I use a pataks curry paste, half tin of tomatoes and about 50ml of water with meat & veg of your choice.

I love snooker, but as much as I love watching O'Sullivan play, I dont want him to win !!

Mince - brown mince is fine to use. Beef cells react with oxygen in the air and it goes brown quite quickly. However people prefer to buy blood red meat, so it's packaged in containers filled with nitrogen to keep it blood red for longer. Eventually it does start to go brown though, but it's perfectly safe to use. When beef goes off it has green sheen to it, goes slimey and it smells.

I buy a carrier bag of mince straight from the mincer in the butchers and it's usually brown. Ditto steaks, joints etc.

Chocolate fountains - I tried one once but I didn't like it. They were setting it up when we were setting up to do a disco at a wedding, and I saw them adding oil to the chocolate and was curious. They need to add the oil to keep the chocolate flowing. They did let me have a go before the guests arrived, but I'm a chocolate snob and I didn't really like the chocolate. I'm also put off by the germs that could be added to it, plus other stuff floating round in the air like hair and fluff.

The school do cake afternoons and you send in a plate of fairy cakes or something in, and a class serves the cakes and drinks to the other classes and parents. Children are handling cakes with no gloves on and we once got a nasty case of worms after attending a cake afternoon. No evidence it came from the cakes, but we've always bought wrapped cakes like mini rolls since just in case

Hand cream - I get awful dry skin on my hands and I've found the best cream is Johnsons baby cream. It's really thick like Neutrogena and works well, but it only costs about 90p for a tube :money:I get dry skin on my feet so once a week I slather loads on and go to bed in a pair of cotton socks, and by morning my feet are lovely.

LOL - I'm not that bad. But I do suffer from really dry skin on my hands because I wash them so often (probably upwards of 20 times a day on a normal day!). I always carry hand cream and use it 5 or 6 times a day but my hands are still cracked and dry like I have been working in the fields!!

Anybody else suffering? Got any miracle cures?

I'm alive!

Keira doesn't like germs apparently as it germs mean you jam your finger in a door and get blood, apparently!

Speaking of germs I was in the casino last night, and was speaking to some rough joiner dude and he was telling me that builders have a stomach of steel because they eat their sandwiches with foul hands, and leave dirty fingerprints on their sandwich, but it's okay because it tastes nice!

Im not a clean freak, so germs are A okay! Keira was never sick as a baby, either literally or cough/cold/diapoopoo, I think she developed an immunity from staying over at OH's mums skanky house!

I went into town last night with my friend, god she is boring! She took a whopping £5 out with her and went home with it, I met up with a bunch of other friends (because a big group of people is more fun than 2!) and she barely made an effort to talk to them, just seemed to expect me to sit and talk with her 100%! They bought her drinks, I bought her drinks, did she return the favour, no.

Anyways town closed at 3am, so we went to the casino and the bouncer tried to say my I.D wasn't me as my eyes are black in the photo? And my hair is blacker? I was like, I WAS 17 WHEN IT WAS TAKEN AND IVE LOST A BIT OF HAIR SINCE THEN!! Then I asked him if he was calling me fat and he let me in....

You have to get your picture taken at the casino when you sign up, I pulled a right gammy face, and he showed me it on the screen, blood awful!

My friend bailed at about 5, even though I said let me finish my drink then I'll go with you, no she just left, ALL MY STUFF WAS AT HERS!! So I ended up going back to two of my other friends house who live next to hers, stayed up all night drinking and went to hers at 11 to get my stuff bahahaha.

Not asking her out again, dour biatch.

Oh, thankyou! We have some of that - bought when Rhys was peeling all over, a stage I'd completely forgotten about (:o) until a few days ago! OH asked me to get him some hand cream yesterday and I completely forgot.. I'll dig out the Johnsons and get him to give that try
