Totally agree! Off topic, Anyone got a quick healing fix for a cut thumb? cut it on a can of cat food, tried laying last night and bled all over my grips. Please dont say i just need to rest it?

 

[Doh]

Depends how deep/big it is but this may sound daft superglue is good i've used it on small annoying hand cuts

 

[Yidio]

Some ice & a needle & thread is the only way im afraid...

 

[John_Findlay]

Can you still get that synthetic skin stuff? Used to come in a wee bottle you brushed onto a cut. Kinda sealed up the wound like glue. Remember it working in the past.

 

[minty18]

might try that one then. hopefully it'll scab over by the time i play tyomorrow night.

Found a link to something like what I mean, minty. Probably get some in the chemists.

Get rid of the cat ...........we cant have this.

 

[blindpete]

Dry cat food is the answer, it smells better too

 

[minty18]

Good thinking.... i could kill the cat and use it as a head cover..... just joking.

pete, she has dry food aswell. My problem was that I was extremely hungover and not really concentrating.

Sick - but quite funny. All I could see in my minds eye was my cat with a driver up its......Anyway what was the topic again!!?

try steristrips - stitches without the pain. they'll keep the wound closed - they've worked on hordes of scouts!

 

[minty18]

hope we dont have any animal rights activists on here. seriously though i love the cat even if i can no longer practice my putting in the house as she chases, bites, and dents all my golf balls.

From my limited know how of medicine, I think super glue was originally invented during vietnam for use by surgeons in lieu of stitches - I do however await howls of laughter and many folks telling me its rubbish.

 

[OldWindy]

I'm glad you said you had a cat - eating cat food can't be all that good for you.

Ashamed to admit - have used superglue on a healing cut - note it was drying out so the glue was there to stop it splitting again. A vet gave up this tip.

 

[USER1999]

This was the original use for super glue. Depending on how deep it is, just tape it up with sticky plaster, and take a few spares in your bag to replace it when it bleeds through.

For the cat - pouches of food. Much less dangerous. Also, poor thing gets to eat different flavours more often. Mine always hates the bottom third of the tin.

Barb - Golf? what, on this forum? See what your post has started.....

 

[forefortheday]

Irony of ironies eh start with golf and look where you end up........

Used to have a cat and loved him to bits, he jumped into a workies van one day and off he went! I often wonder where he is despite the fact he lived under the old adage dogs have masters, cats have staff!

 

[mickytwodesks]

Minty stop being a big girl and get the stapel gun out

or crumble some match heads into the wound and light them...

 

[minty18]

Mickey,

I've decided to put the car cigarette lighter in to it. It's stopped the bleeding, but boy it hurts.

Na i'm not that hard.
