If You Plunged Your Feet Into A Basin Of Cold Water And Ice Cubes It Would Wake You Up, But Could It Do You...

[sandyRoe]

...any harm?

[joggerjayne]

You could stub your toe on the bottom of the basin.

Irrespective of all following answers jj's must get best answer - :-)

A friend from the Bronx told me, you can wash your feet in a basin but you can't wash your feet in a buffalo :-)

[Sam1960]

just don't do it with a cup of tea in your hand ;-)

[ChillDoubt]

I doubt it, sports men and women do it all the time these days:

[anneasquith]

no disrespect, but I don't think sandy is a sportsman :)

[sandyRoe]

You're not wrong, Anne. I was thinking with the oppressive heat it might waken me up. Those chaps in the plastic bins full of icy water could have a heart attack

[anneasquith]

if its because of the heat cool water yes, but iced water I think would be a shock to '' our '' system :)

[sandyRoe]

Maybe we could start gradually. Iced tea with lemon first.

[anneasquith]

oh yes , with a nice wee scone , is your toe any better ?

[anneasquith]

although, I wouldn't waste iced tea and lemon on my feet!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sandyRoe]

the inflammation is fading but it's still slightly sore

[sandyRoe]

I think reflexologists concentrate on the feel. In this weather it would be a treat to have them massaged for an hour.

[sandyRoe]

while reflexologists do concentrate on the 'feel' they also direct their attentions towards the feet ^

[shoota]

Depends which end went in first......

[sandyRoe]

Head first seems to the the conventional way

[shoota]

It may cause a renaissance of the cubist movement.

[sandyRoe]

Did Picasso not put the Braque on that?
