Drummed out of the Regiment?
« on: July 28, 2007, 11:36:49 »
Leapt to Wife's aid - chunk out of her arm with a sharp branch - got out the Savlon spray which is SOP for this sort of thing - ow! that hurts more than usual - double check - it was Insect Repellent.

But after washing & re-spraying, She's OK!

What is it with savlon and mistaken identity. I once cleaned my teeth with it.

I glued the wifes eyes together with super glue for false nails. Certainly closed my eyes, well it did when she got here back open.

Big beefy mountaineering friend confessed to spraying Mr Sheen on his hair instead of hairspray.   Took him a fraction of a second by the looks on our faces to realise how bad a mistake he'd made by letting out his BIG secret.

I've rubbed deep heat onto an insect bite instaed of Anti histamine cream.  My advice - don't.
is it in the sale?
