do that works repel bugs... and a nitty gritty comb (much cheaper off ebay!) they are fantastic!! Strip out the eggs as well as even the teeniest bugs.

I know where I can get some neem shampoo, so might do that today, thanks for the tip. I've got a plastic comb bought in readiness, but Wikipedia recommends a metal one. Is a nitty gritty comb something different?

pigpen

the nitty gritty comb has teeth which are closer together than the usual combs plus the teeth are grooved.. like a drill bit.. so the grooves slide the eggs off the hair and the tiniest lice.. highly recommended from a mother of 5 girls with waist length hair!

We're not passing the nits around this board are we?

My DD has them as well - never seen those combs pigpen will have a look for them.

Why do I never get post like that rach?

Not done much today, woke up with a bad headache and feel a bit sick. Not a full blown migraine but a bit that way.

Just done dailies and have filled up the bath with hot water and bio washing powder. Will empty it later and wipe it round.

It's raining here so, although I've done two loads of washing, I've had to put it all on the clothes horse. I was tempted by the tumble dryer but have resisted so far. Cleaned my cooker - is that alright on a Thursday? Prepared mushrooms, onions and tomatoes ready for tonight's spag bol. Kiwi fruit and grapes with yoghurt and honey for pud. Mmm! Have cleaned bathroom - with bicarb now that I've run out of Cif and have resisted the urge to buy more. Quick dust - with damp cloth, haven't used furniture polish for months now, seems to keep the dust down for longer - I think polish and a duster just moves it somewhere else! - and hoovered. Cleaned kitchen floor, checked my wheelie-bins in case they've had secret microchips installed, put all my paperwork into a pile for dealing with this afternoon, if I don't get distracted. Going to have a cup of coffee now and read through some more threads. My house would be gleaming like a superhome if it wasn't for this site! Have a good day y'all!!

I wish you had taken them - I closed the lid when there were only two left and now I am feeling ever so slightly sick... and not at all warm. Shivering blubber iss not an attractive sight..........
