Thought this was going to be a coal mining thread – it all kicked off on several Facebook groups over the weekend!

If i get a cut/bite/spot etc, it lasts for weeks, because I find it impossible to not pick the scab.

Got some crackers on my shin at the mo courtesy on trying to jump on a large rock at Whitby and missing my foothold and sliding down the edge of the rock shin first, took me about a hour just to walk the pain off.

Good few weeks worth of prize scab picking ahead though.

I’ve kind of replaced the joy of scabs, with the extra-manky hydrocolloid plaster. Love these things.

Disappointed, thought this thread was about pork scratchings.

Just plucked this fella off my back.

Just trying to decide whether to have warm with veg or cold with a crisp salad.

My Mrs. She aint no scab picker.
I can’t not.
