And yes, a kiss just won't do - it's either a band-aid or ice. My kids saw the fancy colourful variety at the chemist/pharmacy/drug-store (take your pick, I'm having fun with this) and I refused to buy them. <br /><br />Talking about being unsympathetic, I espouse the "Yes yes you're fine" school of thought as well.

Therefore plasters equals being taken seriously and as such has currency...<br /><br />Essentially, on that theory, you're just a nicer person than I am, so it's probably true!Harriethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11975259590293860488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432382804917497650.post-79142886861829600842013-09-12T07:11:16.434+01:002013-09-12T07:11:16.434+01:00Last year we brought for my mothers Christmas pres...Last year we brought for my mothers Christmas present (among other things) a box of plasters that have Jesus heals written on them...
