YAB a bit U, yes. It's just not very nice, is it?

Alibabaandthe40nappies · 01/07/2009 14:23

Blimey I think that's pretty rude - if I were the friend I would be mortified!

chevre · 01/07/2009 14:24

i would be thrilled, i have nearly finished mine.

foofi · 01/07/2009 14:25

I'd be horrified. How does it offend you if her feet are rough?

WhatFreshHellIsThis · 01/07/2009 14:25

I'd be really upset if someone did that to me

Galava · 01/07/2009 14:25

Sometimes people need a hint or two.

Does it work ?

chevre · 01/07/2009 14:26

it does work, you need to 'grate' first for best effect.

Galava · 01/07/2009 14:28

Eeewwww 'grate'

Thankfully my heels are just fine...

GooseyLoosey · 01/07/2009 14:30

Depends on the person. Anyone doing it to me would incure my eternal wrath, but then if they didn't know me well enough to have appreciated that, then the friendship would be no loss. If you know her well enough to know she will laugh, then well done. If you don't, will be interested to hear what she said.

Fanjita · 01/07/2009 14:33

Why couldn't you have just suggested to her what to use? Saying something like "oh dear they must be sore, I know just the thing..."

belgo · 01/07/2009 14:37

Would you put hair die through the letter box for someone with a few grey strands? Or anti dandruff shampoo for someone with dandruff? Or a shaver for someone how has more hairs on their legs then you approve of?

How on earth is it any of your business?

coppertop · 01/07/2009 14:39

Just don't be surprised when they repay the favour by sending you a box of suppositories with a scrawled note attached saying:

"Use these so that your head isn't the only thing up your arse."

Another Heels Thread!?!?!

Can we never tire of this subject?

Boco · 01/07/2009 14:43

It's only heels, i think it's ok - i'd not be offended. It would be worse if it was breath freshener and a picture of people retching and a scrawled note saying 'this is what you are doing to people when you breathe' or some extra strong deodorant or hair removal cream for her face or anti-fart capsules or something. But a bit of dry skin is no biggy.

PortBlacksandResident · 01/07/2009 14:43

LOL Coppertop.

bigchris · 01/07/2009 14:44

lol what about tweezers and a picture of billy goat's gruff

Boco · 01/07/2009 14:47

LOL. Or a picture of a cat's bum and a voucher for botox.

squilly · 01/07/2009 14:52

I wouldn't be cross. In fact if any of my friends want to pay for anything for me, boob job, hair colour, leg waxing or threading, anything in fact, Just shove it through my door please

GingerIgnoramus · 01/07/2009 14:56

i'd have just posted a cheese grater with a note on 'how to eliminate crusty cheese...'

I was in a sauna once with an aquaintance of mine, when she produced a disposable razor and started shaving slices of cheesy hard skin off her feet

Boco · 01/07/2009 15:01

OMG I will never eat a Soho pizza again.

chevre · 01/07/2009 15:02
