yee gods:(

[tamborine]

mid aged snobby had grey roots tinted. Keen gardener, crawling in black fat lice....I cant stop scratching

[rowanwitch]

oh yuk... I bet she was delighted to find that out

[Tilly2]

What's the gardening bit got to do with the head lice?

[cazzz1975]

how on earth did she get headlice? does she have school age children/grandchildren?

[tamborine]

Didn't tell her, gotta think of ££s but did disinfect all

[Tilly2]

I couldn't have done her hair. .

[tamborine]

cant see pests till products applied, which kills em. Got a fat cheque tho:)

[rowanwitch]

When we had infected patients in ITU it always seemed to be me or one other nurse who had to do the treatment... doesn't bother me I've never had headlice

[B00]

im baffled.

Is there only me who can't make head nor tail of Tambo's posts?

Why does there appear to be words missing from his sentences?

Tambo- help me out here!

[bednobs]

hi boo - i think tambo is a woman. I think she is perhaps a hairdresser, and she had a middle aged, snobby customer come in for her roots to be tinted, and tamb found her hair was crawling with lice. I think.

[B00]

ohhh, right, really? Are they? sorry Tambo! Always assumed you were a bloke, dunno why- sorry!

Thanks for the explanation Bednobs, thought that's what it was about, just confused by the gardener bit?

[ladybirder]

You weren't the only one B00.

[maggiebee]

Now I'm scratching too!!

[ummmm]

Are head lice even black?

[sherrardk]

I am an expert on nits (or I bloody well should be), some of them (the big horrible ones) look black (might be very dark brown though).

[B00]

IO didn't think lice were black no, but can't remember- not going Googling as then i'll start scratching too!

Weren't fleas were they? Oh yuck, that's worse!

[tamborine]

Boo, I was brief as this went out from work & time was limited. It made me shudder with shock so came online to distract myself. Sorry, didn't mean to shock others.
