How I hate my big toe nails,

They live too far way.

I can hardly reach down there

Cos fat gets in the way.

I know that it’s my own fault

That I’m now built that way.

But not being able to reach down there

Is a heavy price to pay.

Because I’m diabetic

I should get them cut for free.

Just walk in the doctor said

No trouble will it be.

So off I goes to where he said,

As quickly as I dare.

Just to find to my disgust

The rest of the town were there! :-0

We decided to have ours done at home.

I suppose it is a bit expensive, but the foot massage and the comfort is great.

I've been having mine done at home, but £26 just to get my nails cut seemed a bit steep. Still, there was no way I was queuing for that long. 😡

Oh Don, your writing's spot on! Though personally ( like Pete) they come to me now. It's not expensive and so worth it. Xx
