My main memory of dolly blue though is when a couple of my brothers knocked down a bees nest and were stung something awful......My Ma dragged the zinc bath out, filled it up with cold water and put a couple of dolly blue bags in there and both of the lads were immersed in the water untill the stinging stopped.

Ye but I bet their danglers looked like the had been in the arctic for a month?
