Really? But Mrs Beeton swears by it.![]()
So, is paddy reserved for cakes?![]()
in an emergency, butter can help in cases of tar stuck to skin as it aids removal of the tar.
grease on a new burn helps keep heat IN the tissue, doing more damage. cold water, des, cold water - and for up to 20 minutes!
once the skin is cooled, cling film is about your best bet to cover the burn in to keep out infection before hospital treatment. if the burn's small, like dolf's, just cool it and let it be. well, ok, you can cover it with a sterile gauze if you want, but just don't put butter on a burn. really. it can create an ideal breeding ground for infection. i'll shut up now.
We have those!!!!
Rice paddies.![]()
No, thank you! Clearly I need to update my training. Please tell me leeches and cupping are still OK, or I'm going to be awfully short of things to say in my talk to the WI.
if you are not truly biting your tongue very, very hard, des, get a modern first aid book - one that shows the differences in treating adults and children. it's important when you've a tot, k?
so i was right. thank goodnessNo, sorry, I was joking. I know about cold water and sterilized bandages - I've even done a St John's ambulance course and successfully resuscitated a plastic torso using CPR...![]()

how cute that they've found the beagle pupster after all this time, but sad pillinger died last year and never got to know.
Ahhhh. I always sang it paddy too,so you're not alone.
A very telling confession.
That I was hoping for a strapping young Scots-Irish of the ginger variety since I was a wee one?
