Odo, Baby, Chloe & Burt all thank you for the posts to me and to the FML about stopping the bleeding when cutting nails too close. Hopefuly, I won't have to use your suggestions too often. I was particularly interested to see the post about bag balm (the salve for cows with sensitive breasts). Susie must be from cow country:o). Many thanks. Dale [Posted in FML issue 2549]
