Officially lost it!

Hi All, the spa/gym at the local hotel has an open day today so thought I'd pop along to see what the facilities are like as GP and rheumy keep saying swimming is good exercise for me - don't much like swimming as it hurts my back and cold water makes everything seize up but ought to at least show willing pending promised hydrotherapy. Decided I'd better scrape off the winter foliage so as not to scare the natives in case I get the chance to try the pool out. Thought the foam was runnier than usual and my legs etc felt a bit sticky. Only when I was tidying up I realised I'd used hair mousse instead of shaving foam! I'm blaming fibro fog ... nothing to do with my age. At least my body parts should stay nicely in place :) x

Well this made me think about a tale my uncle tells of staying with my mum when she (his big sis) was at uni and he started brushing his teeth in her gig and thought the toothpaste tasted a bit off and looked and discovered it was spermicidal gel! TTx
