  1. When getting ready to go out on one's bike, make sure that when one picks up
    the tube of facial sun cream/moisturiser to apply to one's face before going
    outside, you notice you are picking up and using the correct item. Otherwise
    one can find that one has thoroughly applied toothpaste to one's visage. It
    is not a good look. Do not ask how me how I know this.

    ....and your work mates will just love that minty fresh smell you bring
    to the office. Better than the useal vague smell of rubber mixed with
    WD40!

    It could be worse, you could have cleaned your teeth with sun cream or
    worse. ;-)

    I have a tube of combined suncream and lipsalve. I used it for many
    days before realising that "combined" meant there were two products
    with separate nozzles and I'd been putting lipsalve on all over.

    I've just been out for a lunch time ride: an hour despairing of (some)
    other road users (including, of all things, a driving instructor
    trying to give a lesson whilst hurling abuse at another road user).
    Feeling somewhat "down" I read this and laughed out loud, so thank
    you.

    Don't know what my colleagues think I was laughing at...!

    If that's the way you smell, I think I need to get to know you better!

    Reminds me of the time I brushed my teeth with hair gel. I've not bought
    Colgate Blue Minty Gel since.

    Cheers,

    My daughter once had a bit of eczema, we had some cream from the doctors
    which had to be kept in the fridge. It was a very similar size and colour
    scheme to a tube of garlic puree.

    She didn't whinge about the stinging and stank a bit.

    Cleared up the eczema though

    days before realising that "combined" meant there were two products
    with separate nozzles and I'd been putting lipsalve on all over.

    The combined stuff is useful. When cycling in New Zealand (compulsory
    helmet law) I got so hot that sweat streaming down my face washed the
    suncream off, leading to a burnt nose and forehead. Until I realised my
    lips were OK because the greasy lip salve didn't dissolve, so I used lip
    salve instead of suncream on the problem bits.
