Don't have children..they give you headlice!
Josh has been scraping away recently but i couldnt see anything in there (its getting in ned of a cut again) so assumed it just needed a good wash as my head itches sometimes if i dont wash it for a little while.
sitting in a&e last night hes falling asleep on me n im playing with his hair n what do i see..a bloody louse i really really hate bugs of any sort so was having phantom itches all over my skin all night! did the conditioner n comb job on him this morning whch will hopefully sort it with a couple of goes, and had a check of mine too , n whaddya know..the little buggers have got me too

lergies

something my mum knows AAAAAALLLL about!

I'll bet

'goes n sits in the lergie corner'

I was terrible as a child. I used to have really thick and really long hair so any head lice were attracted to me like youknowwhat to a blanket.

Ask mum about a particular time when she was trying to get them out of my hair...she'll tell you all about that one

Will do

she does love to tell us all your embarrassing childhood tales

and don't I know it!




The shame...the shame I tell you!!!!

Awww <longdistance I don't think I've had de nits for a long while, though I did when a kid how was you in A and E? did they give you a good going over

Not really a good going over no..a good telling off for smoking though

Everyones had nits at somepoint pesky things, adults who are intolerant of all bugs shoulldnt have to endureit though ..and theres the other prob..quite how do you put..'by the way darling i may have given you headlice..'

Well.... just think its better than telling them you've given them some other type of lice

Very true

'wonders if lice can change type like herpes does'

naa, don't think they can do that pubic lice, headlice, human lice, all different I think

You sure? surely if a coldsore (herpes simplex) can transfer n become genital herpes head lice can become pubic lice? back me up here man..im seeing if the thought stop me being offerd a 'sausage supper' for a while

Well, the Herpies virus, can just do both, its a virus, very very very simple thinggies, lice are more complicated critters I'm sure!

*shudders* 'orrible 'orrible things!!


She was snooing in them!..But no even the doctor could see anything. "she has a lot of dandruff" was all that was said!

Anyway, I called in the chemist on the way home and bought a "shampoo" and a comb!

On the way home, I informed my friend of my suspicions and that hers might have them too.. she was fine about it.


Oh My!!!.... I was sitting on the lid of the loo with tilly mint seated between my legs. When they all came running down her back!!!

I was making such a racket.. that VC came to see if we were alright.. only to be screech at....."Close that door..go away" as I was catching them and throwing them into the bath!


Five minutes after I got back downstairs.. and was composing myself... my friend called round, saying, "I've come to warn you. That stuff you bought makes then all run out of the hair!!"


Why couldn't she have said it an hour before!

Oh god mum thats gross

Then she picked them up at a weekend in Brownie Camp... The leaders came to see me the day after they got home, because one of them had picked them up... the contacted the girls mother..who admitted she knew the girl had got them!..It went through the majority of the pack!

I kept josh off scholl once cos id found nits n wanted to treat them before he went in n gave it to everyone! I got a bollocking for it! its not an acceptable reason to keep them off apparently!

I played hell with the headmistress.. because mine was being treated.. and 3 weeks later was infested again...this went on for a couple of months.. so I kept them out of school for a week until they sorted the matter out properly... which they did do after that.
