Well, I've just discouvered a blister on the outside of my middle finger!!
It's filled with puss. Yuk. So is it like when you wear new shoes? Can I spin on that fing ger again??

Yup. When I started ever so any years ago, I had blisters on my index finger and middle fingers, mostly index. It sucked but I put a bandage over them, covered it with duct tape and kept spinning.
I now have callouses on those fingers and rarely, if ever, get a blister.

It's a rite of passage...;)

We have also just had a butter fight. It's not very nice, I have butter in my eye. You can't imagine the pain.

Dont pop blisters joe - they could get infected, ya numpty!!!

I'm telling doc lightning on you!!!



I've never had spinning blisters, probably because i have tough skin due to guitar playing

Yup, I definitely had blisters, especially during that 2-weeks revision period of mine during re-sits for exams...had nothing else to do apart from revise so I took my sock poi spinning to the limit...the problem was, that my sock poi started getting manky and harsh because my hands got sweaty and I couldn't really wash the socks, otherwise I'd have to restretch them again... Harsh material + soft-ish skin = owwy blisters.
I just put a plaster over them and let them dry. It's much less painful than having popped it and then the skin underneath is exposed.

It's better to burn out than to fade away
