a good turn needs to be considered......
Pulled up a stinging nettle today ...from a friend's garden......and the pain is still with me. She has no idea of the sheer torture I have endured in an effort to be a hero,......er, I mean to be a help to her. The pain is so severe I can still feel it sometimes .
so folks, doing a good turn needs thinking about
anybody else suffered like this ?

Frequently! I regard it as medical research http://www.arthritisresearchuk.org/arthritis-information/complementary-and-alternative-medicines/cam-report/complementary-medicines-for-osteoarthritis/stinging-nettle.aspx
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
try alcohol Verdun. Not on it , but in you. Works a treat for me.
Nettles don't sting this month.
The one I pulled out of a pot stung me yesterday Fritillary, honest it did.
Have you tried gloves Verdun, they are sold in abundance in my part of the UK or in the words of that famous philosopher Sinita, were you trying to be "so macho".
lol
Got both forearms stung severely when attempting to show how tough i was to the stupid girly girls when we lost our ball in the brook, never did get any recognition....just looked like popeye!
Poldark viewers may experience visions of verdun slathered and lathered in all these curious potions and lotions, just keep your shirt on verdun or you may be accosted
Ooooo Winter . . . . . what an image I now have . . . . .
i'm sure baby oil is good for stinging nettles
