What ails a boy who has his feet in a big bowl of warm watery Epson Salts?
When I was small it was a cup of hot Bovril and some bread. These days it's a fruity Yoghurt with a luxury foot spa.
So, what is he suffering from? Dropsy? The Vapours? In-growing toe nails?
No, after a long day running on the beach his sandals had rubbed sores onto his feet, and out came the healing Epsom Salts.
Do they work? No idea, but I suppose it can't do any harm. The Yoghurt works; that I do know!

Epsom salts are just the thing for tired sore feet, no matter how old you are.

It is lovely to be pampered and someone as adorable as he is, probably gets a lot of that.
That is a wonderful picture, Cro.
Epsom Salts always sound like some fictional comical product to me.
I'm sure it's just the pampering that does the magic.
Who is this cute litthe chap. He seems very concentrated on his yoghurt. Does he live à la Côte d'Azur where it's still time to run on the beach? For sore feet we use the "gros sel" , which normally we add to a winter pot au feu.
He is almost a big boy now. Time flies.
He is a foundling from Finland, sometimes know as Francis.
Here in France we never add sore feet to a pot au feu; only ever sore hands.
We speak to him on Skype, he's very funny.
Thanks for your ironic explanation. BTW in France you always add gros sel to a pot au feu but well you're a Brit. A foundling from Finland called Francis ,normally over there the trolls and gnomes doesn't look as cute.I will never catch what Brits call humour!!!
Oh I see it must be some child of your family how should I know. All your name are not real .
He is my grandson called Boo Boo.
Here in France we add Gros Sel to almost all cooking that requires salt. Sel Fin is reserved for the table.
Bless him!

Ice-cream works even better!
He's a little Monkey.
Ice cream should be available on prescription.
Sorry didn't know that. He is really cute.
Boo Boo is so grown up now ... they grow so fast don't they ? Gorgeous boy ..... and being lovingly looked after. I bet he felt so much better. XXXX
Hirschtalg is a wonder cream for sore feet!
I have a feeling it did the trick; I hope your husband gave YOU Yoghurt too!
I can't even pronounce it; so it must be good!
Children heal quickly, unlike 60 year old men.
And they usually bounce too.
And I'm a bit confused I thought you had a baby grandson born this year, which you never showed us and the big boys from GB.
I have six grandSONS. Two in London, and four in Australia. The one above (Boo Boo) is the oldest of my youngest son's boys; the other one is called Micha.
Oh nice you're a blessed grandpa with six grandsons.
He is a cutie. Is he the one who ripped his pants and had no underwear on when you all were out to dinner ?
cheers, parsnip
No, that was one of my London grandsons; Ollie. He's the comedian of the bunch.
