Back again this evenig (once it had cooled down a bit) and did some hoe-ing of paths. We have a skip on site so decided to try and get rid of the multitude of stones I have taken out of the beds. I had them in a heap next to my gate and had to use a fork to loosen them, a spade to move them then a shovel to pick them up and put them in a metal bucket to take to the skip. After more than a dozen loads tipped I was still only about 2/3 oof the way through them. Then I developed a blister! I used to have tough, rough hands when I was working, but since retirement my hands are alway clean and soft like a babies backside. I just hope I haven't developd a handshake like a wet lettuce.
Anyway, blister stopped play unntil I got home and put a plaster on.I remember when I was an apprentice many years ago, the favoured way to treat blisters was to pee on them!
