My bro -in-law was a brickie. the old fashioned sort who did an apprenticeship and attended college to get his C&Gs and the only person I knew in the 1960s who used a slide rule proficiently despite his Secondary Modern schooling - and we were both 'Grammar' girls!

Anyway - before he went back to bricklaying etc (always built their own houses and extensions for mates etc all his life even though he wasn't doing it daily any more) - he'd be raiding Gill's supply of handcream before and during to get more oil back into his hand skin - you might try that too!
Great minds....... Jenny Actually I've been pinching some of my daughter's various lotions for the past few days- and she hasn't even noticed yet🙂
 
Hi. Run the finger under a hot'ish tap for a while; a nurse friend told me that.
