If you have OCD and are prone to wash your hands a thousand times a day, it's best you not read the article

Face mites live on all adults, study suggests - Technology & Science - CBC News

I might be shaving more often. See if they like drowning in cheap astringent

"Great fleas have little fleas upon their backs to bite 'em,

And little fleas have lesser fleas, and so ad infinitum.

And the great fleas themselves, in turn, have greater fleas to go on,

While these again have greater still, and greater still, and so on."
I thought I knew more than this until I opened my mouth

Only today, I was thinking to myself how loving rescue Puppy was being. She jumped on my lap and gave me some lovely kisses along with sticking her tongue In my ear.

My husband then Informed me ' You do know she's just been licking the cats s.hit In the garden' ?

The human body is full of symbiotic parasites which do absolutely no harm at all - and are often quite beneficial.

Mmm, that Jackie who has a mild form of OCD and whose mind can imagine horrors that aren't even there? Nah! Wasn't worth the paranoia.

But sorry for misleading you

Things went down hill when you couldnt buy Vim and they though Cif was the answer instead. Might even give Duraglit a go. That soft fluffy stuff MUST be good for the skin

I'll have you know, Oscar missus, that I nearly bought a tin of Ajax the other day for nostalgia reasons.

Still looking for a tub of pink Gumption...ahhh, the smell, the texture...

It was like sandpaper.

I like Cillet Bang foam spray.

Spray, clear off, have a cigg and cup of tea, then go back and wipe over.

I couldn't help but think of this when the idea of washing with Vim came up...
