That was stupid!

[Workingman]

I made a rub using red hot chili, camphor and eucalyptus oils. So, I applied some of it to my sore Achilles tendon to try to ease it. So far so good.

About an hour later I had an itch near my eye so gave it a rub.

That was stupid.

Ouch. I did that the other week but just with chilli. Dread to think how sore that is. Copious amounts of cold water

[Workingman]

It was a good job I only rubbed my cheek and temple, and not my eye.

What did you say at the time ,...WM??

hehe, Just glad it wasn't me that did it.

I said 'Goodness, ooh, that hurts, I really must not do that again, what a silly fellow I am, in future I should be a lot more careful'.

Well, that was the sentiment, if not exactly the words used.

Its chili they put in the drops at the eye hopital too

[Workingman]

That's a fib, Buster, they just hurt a bit.

I was at the eye clinic the other week. The drops I was given made colours so bright... iridescent.

I am moderately colour blind but those drops made every colour so clear.

I think Buster has a point - I nearly shot through the roof when I had some drops in at the eye clinic last summer. "This might sting a bit" being the understatement of the century

Frank it could have been worse, you could have gone for a wee

[Diflower]

Bb does call them chilli drops

So easily done Wm, and yes so stupid, but you just know it will happen again
