Sacha Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Ooh! That hurts. burns are no fun. We use real (not imitation) vanilla extract on burns immediately. It helps soothe the burn and it heals nicely. Gram's trick. hope you've got something that works equally well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obriens65 Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 Sacha/Katie, I use a spray called burneze. Takes away the sting and cools the burn. Andrew, fortunately no blister to burst as I used the burneze straight away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddybotil Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Simplest, cheapest and very effective is neat lavender oil. Just dab it on neat. You will smell nice too . And will be left with no scar on minor burns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wild foamy Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Also, is it just the camera angle or does the toe next to your little toe have a weird bend in it? O.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obriens65 Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 First you tell me to trade in my pride & joy then you suggest I have deformed feet. I could become offensive... I mean offended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wild foamy Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Don't be offended bud, if anything I am an admirer of feet, it separates us from the apes does it not. You can tell a lot from somebody's feet, those with a strong work ethic will often have thick calluses and hardy skin, those of a lazier state may well have dainty feet prone to swelling. Those who do not trim their nails often wear holes into their socks long before those with well-tendered feet. A person's temperament may also be worked out through their feet, tickling the arch of one's feet will either bring about an outburst of rage followed by an 'uncontrolled' reflex kick to your face and/or genitals, whereas a person with a more gentle and timid personality will often giggle and recoil into the foetal position. If anything, feet are fascinating, from your photos I'm guessing there is a trend of either lower-body based martial arts, or possibly free-diving.

obriens65 Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 If I was that easily offended I'd either be a basket case or a murderer by now. I'm the youngest of seven kids in my family. I grew a thick skin by the age of two. And I'm in the rage/uncontrollable kick catagory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obriens65 Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 I'm confused. I've always had that reaction to my feet being touched, even before I started Karate. To the point that, as a kid, I couldn't walk barefoot on Brighton beach cos I couldn't stand the touch of the pebbles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
