Always an important topic but I found this interesting, not least for explaining why the soap is important - something I'd accepted but never known why.

Thanks for that, Daffy, like you I knew soap had to be used but never associated it with that reason. We have returned to bar soap (much to The Spouse's irritation) and I leave it in the basin to rinse as I rinse my hands. As a child I was only allowed Pears soap which, needless to say, I loathed but the modern variations in blue and green are much nicer! DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this.

Thanks from me, too, daffy. That makes sense. i confess to a slight irritation that the very reason for my needing such careful hygiene prevents me from using all the recommended methods Rubbing palms together Can some really do that? Ah well, arthritic life is all about improvisation and invention.If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
