Mittens - wet wool is really off-putting 

[Taz2]

I stopped by thinking of all of the germs which are under my nails and on my fingers. Working all day with 6 year olds helps

It doesn't build your immunity to norovirus/stomach viruses which live for a while on surfaces if someone hasn't washed their hands so that's enough for me!

My Dad took a scrape from under my nails when I was about 11 years old and put it under the microscope.  Nope. Not put off ........ I tended to keep to one finger though.

Yes but don't they say it can build your immunity? I must have swallowed thousands of germs from my fingers in my lifetime.

I never have long nails though, I just don't like them.

Funny thing I've noticed in my journey through life is that I don't tend to get on well with the type of women who have their nails manicured. I usually find I have much more in common with those whose hands look like they've just come in from digging the garden 

Oh, yes.  It's as much as I can do to just cut mine these days.  All that peeling chipped nail varnish.  Can't be doing with it.

  ....... I'm going for a pedicure soon  but I HATE emergy boards 

[Two hoots]

I like painting my nails, and I had manicures a few times before going on holiday but I could never have a pedicure because I can't bear to have the sole of my food touched, not even by me

Oh I love my feet tickled.  When stressed it helps to calm me.

Of course, if one doesn't fancy mittens, try socks on the hands

I usually have a pedicure before going on holiday, I love having a foot massage, it always makes me feel so chilled.

Hi countygirl!  I was a terrible nail biter as a child.  My mother told me I would get pin worms if I didn't stop.  Also, she would put this bitter polish on them...which really didn't work. But, the thought of getting worms freaked me out! I have not chewed my nails in years...now I am just a picker! seriously, look up pin worms...so gross!

I have been picking my cuticles around fingers and thumbs since I stopped sucking my thumb so around the age of 5. Then eventually stopped picking the fingers but carried on with thumbs, they healed like new while I was in hospital having my op, but after a few days started again, they both split at different times took nearly 10 months to heal now looking good but after 41 yrs it's hard to stop!

I've had a real good go in recent days  now my fingers feel sore
