Do you clip your toe nails or do you chew them?

Hi

Desperately trying to find a thread that will not degenerate into Brexit or Politics.

Well do you?

Could you chew them if you wanted?

Are you flexible enough?

No need to be shy, let us know.

When I was small with supple bones and neat little nails I could.... but not now .
However, it is an accomplishment I appear to have passed on to my youngest granddaughter

Clip but it is getting an effort. Next diabetes check if offered a clip I will say yes please. I may need local drugs though as ticklish does not describe my feet. One sign of coping with type two is a hairy big toe and ticklish feet

Used to bite my toenails when much younger - no chance now - I use clippers and an occasional pedicure these days .... much easier.

Seems to be going ok up to now..

I use nail scissors but have to admit it's now becoming more difficult to bend over to reach my toes. I'm also very ticklish on my feet so the thought of anyone touching my feet makes me squirm

Hi

I have just tried, I can get the toes on my right foot in my mouth, but my left leg is very stiff.

Nadi, my pretend granddaughter, is 6 and she can get both feet in her mouth at the same time.

Nail clippers.....I believe Artangel used to chew her toe nails.
Apparently she misses it so much she's taken up Yoga.

Re: Do you clip your toe nails or do you chew them?

Don't think I have been able to bend like that EVER. I use clippers. I know when they need doing because lots of socks end up in the bin.
