Catching up on my reading someone happened to mention them and up popped a rhyme. I haven’t had to use them myself for many years back when I had a pile of trouble.
Oh dear I just started eating green vegetable soup and the scene now looks like something from Alien because I did a huge laugh and expelled a mouthful of soup with noodles. Very undignified! Thanks for the laugh Don 👍
I thought at first that I’d happened across the spammer everyone’s talking about on here!! As I read on, I certainly got the humour.....though a suppository is still not my favourite subject 😂🤣 Thanks for the variety, Don 👍
Hmmmm...... I was given a suppository for asthma medication many, many decades ago. I don’t think it had the desired effect. Has anyone else? Mind you my asthma treatment in the fifties was bizarre, there was a children's course at the local children’s hospital. We were given ultra violet light treatment. We stood around this purple light in our knickers and with goggles on. Then lay down and had lessons in breathing techniques. Now THAT was excellent and stood me in good stead for the next half century. Going back to the suppository —- as it were — I think my medication was Aminophylin??
Haha Don. I was on a ferry with a girlfriend who was very sea sick. Some French people opposite offered her something for it. She went to the bathroom for some water to take it and when she came back she indicated she had swallowed it and they first looked shocked and then laughed and laughed and one turned round and pointed to his bum - no mutual languages here - and she realised! Of course that's how the French take loads of their medicine, not so coy and body-anxious as we are in the U.K.
Hard to convince some people that what you are about to do is helpful. Worse than suppositories are flatus tubes; the resultant bubbles are pretty tho x
Remember using those in hospital and one memory sounds out of a Dr inserting one into a seriously blocked up lad but didn't get it in the bucket quick enough and the result was messy. I knew the lad well and we both were in hysterics at the poor Dr covered in poo
