Does everyone know about this miracle cure? And olive oil and cradle cap?

Probably you all do, but just in case. Brilliant, huh?

Yes - tried and tested both and both work.

Oh - it's banana skins for verucca's though.

scotchick · 21/08/2006 16:30

yes,, that's what I meant, before anyone starts mashing the banana and smearing it on!

Ewwww - rofl.

but how do you get the banana skin to stay there?

I used micropore tape - inside of banana skin on offending verucca. Change daily. Takes a few weeks - several weeks if it's a stubborn one like ds1's. Dd's was gone in about a fortnight.

Tried everything on ds1's verucca, even wart clinic with liquid nitrogen, til someone told me about the banana skin. I just sellotaped it on at night, in morning washed it (it goes all black and yuccky), pumiced it and bazooka'd it then repeated banana at night. Only took one week for ds1's!! I gauged one out with my nail and it left a wee deep hole in his foot! Eeeww, but very satisfying!
