Thanks Janni, would you believe Les brought home some Golden Eye ointment last night, Only used it twice, but it seems to be working. thankfully its just a little one, might have caught it in time.

Sandy it was Jenny who suggested the Golden Eye Ointment.

The gold ring treatment works too, I had a stye once, my great-aunt rubbed it with her wedding ring & it was gone a couple of days later. Of course it was probably on its way out anyway........... I've never had another one since though

Ops, Sorry. Jenny, Sure you know me well enough now to know its not unusual for me to get mixed up.

That's OK Sandy, no worry. I haven't taken mortal offence or anything, I'm sure Janni would have come up with the same suggestion! Glad your stye is better.

Yes I remember Golden Eye Ointment being bought from the chemist years and years ago if anyone in the family had a stye in their eye!

my cat had a sore eye and the vet (on a phone call)told me to get golden eye and use it on the cat...it worked and was half the price of a vet visit...the cats eye recovered well......

I go off here for a week and miss bluddy everythin!!

dont worry you'll soon catch up

it is usually me who misses all the craic!!!

Chaddy, what does "craic" mean? I know it's an Irish word, I've seen Shin use it, but it's not in my dictionary and I'm curious!

Me too

well it is a word used here in ireland and it has a few meanings..
if I had not seen you for a whle and then met you or rang you i would probally say "whats the craic jad" i am asking you to tell me all the news and gossip!!
if i said "any craic x-megzie-x" i would be asking if there was any news good or bad or anything exciteing happening.

if I was talking to Shin or Sandy (them being from here)and i said "wait till I tell the craic" i would be passing on to them gossip..."wait till you here what happened" in other words..

if I was talking to you and said"we had the best of craic last night" i would mean we had the best of fun or a really good night....

i was in yorkshire visiting my hubby sister and my nephews who were in their 20's and I said to Andrew.."any good craic" meaning any good news,excitement or fun...he looked at me in horror as he thought I was asking him if he knew where I would get good drugs like crack cocaine ....slight language problem that needed to be translated.......

hope you now understand all of you over there on the mainland!!!!!!!!!!
my hubbys parents lived in Scotland and hubby still calls a coat hanger a bracket

Haha!! Thanks chaddy

I remember reading the word "craic" in an Irish novel a few years ago and not knowing what it meant I looked it up in the dictionary, but it wasn't there. So thanks for explaining it Chaddy!

My twins hubby is Irish & the first time he said "Any craic?" to us I was horrified! I thought she'd married a junkie.........

Thanks Chaddy, now I know! Is it pronounced "crake"?

it is pronunced the same as crack..like a crack in the mirror........

Ahh that makes sense now with people think you're asking for drugs

You bunch of junkies!

Take a break have a spliff.

Aaaaaand chilllllllllll

What's wrong with you megzie?

when people from Northern Ireland or south ireland mention the word craic (pronounced crack)it is nothing to do with drugs.........
