Frosty the Snowman, based on the size of the bottle i think you need to go to the doctors and have a sensation test on your feet....you're not diabetic are you

Similar problem for friend of mine who left a sachet of silica gel in boot for 1/2 day whilst spending whole time complaining.
Little or no sympathy during whinge time, lot of laughs at his expense when he admitted solving the problem at lunchtime.
But FtS - you got through a whole day????

Still not as bad as the guy who walked into a shop in Meribel this winter with a painful boot. Further investigation revealed a slightly decomposed mouse...

offpisteskiing, flowa, when I went to live with the person who eventually became my husband, he had a toaster which wasn't working. Eventually we found the cause. Same as you describe. And he is one of the cleanest, most fastidious people I know. These things can happen!

Hey CEM, have sent a couple of folks your way recently for some footbeds.
Mate of mine working in the states many moons ago had a Japanese client complaining of 'hurty hurty feet'. After much faffing with buckles etc finally went into cafe, took off boots and the chap still had his hotel slippers on...

Well the boots are now back together after another clean and disinfection. Liners and shells scrupulously checked prior to the insertion of the footbeds and liners.
One of the two flat bolts that holds the power strap on was found to be missing on the left boot. Luckily The Boss is down at Castleford today and has had it replaced.

I once eeerrr... skied a whole day in agony during a Canadian trip... errrr... turned out I had a wolverine between my liner and shell. It had eaten half of my ankle before I realised. How silly I felt

Scarpa, reminds me of Lord Uxbridge at Waterloo:
| Wikipedia wrote: |
Henry Paget, Lord Uxbridge, was commander of some 13,000 Allied cavalry and 44 guns of horse artillery at the Battle of Waterloo. At about 2:30pm, at a critical stage in the battle, he personally led a charge of the 2,000 heavy cavalry of the Household Brigade and the Union Brigade to throw back the columns of D'Erlon's French I Corps which were threatening to push back Picton's severely outnumbered 5th Division, with some 15,000 French infantry advancing on 3,000 British. The charge succeeded in sweeping the French infantry away in disorder, but Uxbridge was unable to rally his troops, who ran on in pursuit and were cut up by counterattacking French cavalry. Uxbridge spent the rest of the battle leading a series of charges by British light cavalry formations, and had eight or nine horses shot from under him.[4]
One of the last cannon shots fired on 18 June 1815 hit his right leg, necessitating its amputation above the knee.[5] According to anecdote, he was close to the Duke of Wellington when his leg was hit, and exclaimed, "By God, sir, I've lost my leg!" — to which Wellington replied, "By God, sir, so you have!"[6] |
