tee hee can picture you with legs up. I did the same with mine didnt work either. Told it was my proteins and when they where sorted would improve took ages to go down and told not to get them wet. OMG i have smell feet best of times thank god they gave me a cleansing cream that stopped them cracking although now have stretch marks on my feet not a pretty site. I go through so many loo rolls and was thinking of using to wrap my ribbon round once flattened but might have to have ago. Love it and have a good day. xxxx
