Happy I found you

[Gilly]

Thanks guys (unless one of you is a girl bear You're the friendliest bunch of people I've come across in a long time. I have very little interest in the computer as far as social stuff goes ( like facebook) but this is great!  I feel like I've found some skindred spirits  
This morning I left early for work to drop into the service station to load up on chocolate bribery, (I work in high care dementia and nothing works like chocolate frogs) and I stroll up to the counter, count out 40 frogs and the guy behind the counter is just staring at me, I've been going there for years. I say "whaaaaaat?????? Rob" and he says..."No band-aids this morning?"  and I thought Jeepers! am I known in the area for buying band-aids? My hands split and sting so badly I have to wrap my fingers firstly in skin sensitive band aids and then woven ones, it's become a daily ritual. I'm hoping to find some ideas and will spend more time in here on the weekend.
Huntsman spiders! it gives me a rash just thinking about them, the big hairy ones that have fake eyes on their bums

Hi Gilly,

Yes  !!!! A biker !!!

               

Fred will be delighted, isn't it Fred ?  
He will probably have to surrender now.  

So fun to have another biker on the forum. We already have a few, but hardly any active ones. Currently I am the only one speeding around on the forum. I used to chase Fred's chickens but he got rid of them as he moved to another house.

You are a weekend biker? I drive every day to work.

On serious things, treatments and so, you should perhaps read the contributions of your fellow Australian Bill, our physics scientist.

Cheers and happy biking!

Caroline

oooooh no not another girl biker ... Life here could get difficult for us poor men  
Just read through your post and thought a typo ... Then read it again .... Cleeeeever use of words I like skindred spirits  
I Hope you find some relief for your hands but I think a good dermatologist should be able to sort you out.
Yes Bill is our Australian friend with do it yourself treatment. Very effective but not for the feint hearted. I would go the conventional route if you can get help that way
Sounds as if you have a very rewarding career looking forward to hearing more from you soon

Thank you paul and bright eyes. I've not had a chance to pop in this week, have had accreditation at work for the past week and have just come home late and fallen over I've tried a couple of new things this past month and have had great success with my P generally, I will come back this week and share it and see if it helps anyone.
