AIBU?

To expect the instructions on menthol crystals to be a little clearer?

I have just burnt my eyes, the inside of my nose and my throat inhaling a menthol face steam very deeply.

What exactly does a few crystals mean . Clearly not as much as I thought!

which doesn't normally come with instructions

god, they're lethal!

I literally use two or three tiny little bits in a pint of water

lethal? No shit! I emptied out the bowl, put more hot water in to start again and it was still too strong!

I used a pinch! Next time I am going to count them out. Few = three, quite literally in this instance!

My sinus's (or is it sinus'? one for the pedants I think) feel somewhat clearer now though!

scottishmummy I am now, but it took a moment of two to recover, thats for sure.

I will in the middle of an argument with DH and it did not look good when i suddenly started choking, unable to breathe or see! Luckily I had my eyes closed or else I am sure it would have been worse on my eyes!!!
