What was it called?

I'm seriously thinking of going back to my old one........I would just have to renew some of the letters, which have gone very faint........I thought that going wirelss would be an improvement! :)
 
I loathe using the keyboard. Having 4 semi-numb fingers is a real nuisance.
Also I need to support my head with my left hand to ease my arthritic neck.

Today I have discovered the Microsoft On-Screen keyboard, so can type using mouse only - wonderful!.
 
Back to the thread. What was that stick (honest) thing my Dad used on his face when he cut himself shaving?? Seemed to stop the bleeding?? :confused::confused::confused:
 
It was a styptic pencil....you can still buy them.

No..............I don't know everything,:) I have just lived a long time and have a good memory.
 
You know when you have a "hang-nail" - a loose bit of skin at the side of a finger nail, my aunt used to call it a "stepmother jag". Anyone else heard that? Perhaps it was an old Rishtonian saying.
 
nope...that's what we call them too...OK, I'm only down the road in Clayton.......but I'm sure I have heard other people use that phrase for them.
