Ouch VT!
Can't really suggest much except a nice gentle warm wash and some soothing lotion, plus your comfiest pair of slippers! It's a good excuse to put your feet up!

(Hot weather isn't kind to feet).

Having seen my friends' small garden with well stocked raised beds, I am a bit less frantic about the amount of garden I am going to need when I move. Raised beds look to be the way forward...you can even build 'em onto concrete! "It ain't how much you've got, it's what you do with it!"
I was quite restrained at the BBQ too. However, I have eaten 3 WW bars since I got back!
