Hoovie,

Think VW vinegar wasps and BB Bees bicarbonate, when treating stings!

vinegar? rubbed on or applied internally (just having some piza and chips

)

Hoovie,

Do whatever takes your fancy!!

But if I was suffering from a wasp sting I'd rub vinegar on it.

One got into my shorts once and stung me right on the end of my k**b.

I went to A&E and asked them if they could do something about the pain, but leave the swelling.

Think yourself lucky Hoovie. If my OH gets stung he swells like a balloon and depending upon where he's stung it could be fatal!

I did think that actually - as while I was making my dinner, I was opening up monkey nuts and thought "Wasp sting and eating Peanuts - god, I know how to live on the edge"

I have to watch for nut allergies when I cook with the kids at school. So many products have tiny amounts of nuts in them.
