October.
The shocks get my hubby worse than me...I think some on here have found the same trick as him - if you sit down at a machine - whack it with your hand quickly...that gets the shock out of the way.
I put the bounce sheets in my shoes.The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.0 -

MarchVegas is the only place we've ever been that we have to break out the saline nasal spray...not everyone has the issue, and we don't every trip but it can get really uncomfortable even if you don't actually end up with a nosebleed.
ratkarth - that reminds me - does anyone who wears disposable daily contacts have any recommendations for eye drops? I usually carry a small bottle of saline (for contacts, not the nose stuff above, I swear)...but it only seems to solve the issue for a short period - it's way, way worse with these than with my old hard contacts - when I never needed eye drops in Vegas. It has caught me out the last 3 trips and I keep meaning to sort that out.Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?0 -
AugustYou may not get shocks.
As I said it affects me very bad, but my wife hardly gets zapped at all.
Do you get any static shocks in the UK ie from lift buttons..I do
Yes, I do - lifts, bannisters, handrails, shopping trolleys mostly...I now fear I'll be in for a whale of a time
I also have nasal problems generally - am waiting for an appt at the hospital to investigate - so im guessing I can look forward to a week of nosebleeds and electrocution... :rotfl:Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying

Oh dear. I dont suffer with any nasal problems so dont know anything about them...BUT the electrocution is BAD!!!! I am joking, its only bad when you touch something:rotfl:
As said I have never tried anything to stop it but it does bug me, when are you going as it definitely isnt as bad in August as it is in the spring time0 -
