Several people have told me that I should rub my feet with surgical spirits, AKA rubbing alcohol, to toughen them up for walking.
After several vain attempts to find the stuff in chemists near to where I live, I gave up.
I was having a Swedish supper this evening (herrings, prawns, etc.) with a little nip of vodka when it struck me that there's precious little difference between rubbing alcohol and what I was drinking... minutes later and my tootsies have just had a bath of Absolut (the plain flavour... they don't smell of blackcurrants or anything!).
Kul, eller hur?
Anyway, I'm off tomorrow to conquer the Ridgeway with my buddy Sven. Details to follow...
