    pigpen - i hate it when dh goes away initially but i always get used to it very quickly. not sure i'd cope if i had 8 children though! xx

    It isn't like they are 8 small children though.. 3 years ago it might have been different.. but they are 16, 13, 12, 10, 9, 7, 5 and 3.. so big children really.. only the little 3 need constant supervision.. and the 2 boys are weird.. DS1 is never home and the older 2 girls are marginally more sensible than the average village idiot.. I think we'd be fine

    I remember getting(my one and only) verruca frozen off at the doctors. It was fairly painful if i remember correctly. Didnt work too well either, ended up digging it out myself with my swiss army knife:rotfl:

    Mudbath - what is it you do work wise again ? I know its health related but have yet to figure out what exactly!
    Right, so I will get a pumice stone, do that then slather on some of this Vesagex stuff, then plastic bags, then would a pair of bedsock things do ?
    Will I die of sweaty feet in the night ?? I am still getting up with LO so yes skidding and rustling around maybe not such a good plan. Will, as you say, stick to a few hours in the evening.
    Whats difference btween chirpoodist and podiatrist ? (No its not a joke, I really want to know!!!)

    BTW In my head I keep calling that Vesagex stuff "Vegesex" and since we are both veggie I am LMAO every time I say (think) it. Vegesex HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I'll be going into Boots asking for some vegesex mwwwaaahhhhhh aha hahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaa :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: You see now you will all call it that too :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I am so pleased to have logged in tonight euwwwww... Feet talk. Sorry i have a thing about feet and cracked heels dp gets it really bad and slices it off often making me puke.

    On the other hand its almost under control now, every time he bathes now i make him use a pumice stone then i bought some foot softening cream. Its not gone but its far better to look at now. If i have dry skin i use a foot file and then vaseline lots of it and then a good pair of cotton socks for the night. If its bad like my dp's i found that the first few times to re use te foot file once he woke up when the skin had gone all soft.

    Anyway thanks for putting me off my supper ladies:d and i hope this helps.
    You can touch the dust but please don't write in it !

    Would you like to speak to the man in charge, or the woman who knows whats happening?

    jill - as far as i can tell chiropodists are now called podiatrists and don't like being called chiropodists anymore. i do reflexology, massage, indian head massage, hot stone massage and other treatments like that. i'm self employed mainly to work round the children being at school but also work at a hospice.

    you do realise you are going to go into boots and ask for vegesex don't you !!!

    Implant done, feels weird, it's like a little speck of rice in my arm. They put a local anaesthetic in first which I was more than happy with, so didn't feel it (apart from the ickle local scratch)
    have been thinking about this for a while now. Must think about it again, I keep erm forgetting to use "things" so that there is no baby number 4, thankfully DH has his brain switched on and remembers!!! Really must sort it out though one of these nights he'll forget as well.

    been to post office, popped to coop,
    I read this as "popped to coop" as in coop rhyming with loop. I then read it as "been to post office, !!!!-a-hoop":rotfl: :rotfl: was thinking it was a strange thing to say about the post office :rotfl: :rotfl:
