t-p, is your 'warming thing' one of those fabric, er, things, with beans or seeds in that you then warm your hands (or whatever) with? I saw one the other day (shaped like a bear) that had wheat in it! When it was warm, the wheat smelled like freshly-baked bread!  Smiley

When I was assistant manager in a record shop we used to have a silicone breast implant in the back office for moments of stress.

Also known as wheat sacks, Martle. Wonderful things!  Simple but they work for all sorts of muscular aches and pains. Just think, if you got one then you might be able to lift your cup of instant coffee to your lips again ! Grin

Thank you, Ron Dough. It is absolute bliss for me now. I think there are small stones and spices inside my thing. I put it in microwave and it gives dry heat plus it smells very nicely. It makes me very relaxed, but I do need Ron's pictures for complete bliss.

Is that what those things are! I've often wondered. They sound rather desirable all of a sudden. Do you have to have a microwave though to warm them up? (Cos I haven't.)

There are certainly varieties which can be heated in a conventional oven. And varieties made of all sorts of interesting seeds which have various warmth-retention and -releasing properties.

I could do with one right now, I must say!

Well, there is a Jericho just down the road, Andy, but yes, t-p, it's Egypt. There'll be a few more from the Nile over the coming weeks, I dare say.

George, Ollie is right. You can heat them up in a conventional oven, it just takes a bit longer - half an hour as opposed to 3 minutes. It`s worth the wait though. Bliss! Some are, ahem, impregnated with essential oils although, traitor to my discipline that I am, I don`t think that is strictly necessary for the sack to be beneficial.

Tinners,

I have an image in mind of everyone in the record shop taking as many breaks as possible, even when the shop wasn't particularly stressful, and saying "I'm just off for a grope"!

I'm quite tempted to get one of those wheatsacks, must have a look out for them.

I'm happy because I have persuaded other people at work today to go and buy strange Scottish potatoes, and I have yet more Shetland Blacks  Cheesy

Ron never warned me they could become addictive!

Also I am happy because I obtained the Praetorious Lutheran Mass for Christmas morning, lovely it is.

Many thanks Desirable Oliver Sudden and Mort. I think I may well treat myself to one. Plenty of room in the oven next to the roasting parsnips so I could have two sensual pleasures at once. I don't think that has happened since Ramsgate.

Essential oils in, inessential? I may have to think about that. Sounds as if it belongs to the 'flammable/inflammable, loosen/unloosen' thread.
