You may be forgiven for thinking that this is something out of Little Britain but apparently there are ten steps to washing your hands. The first few are relatively straightforward but by Step 8 things have become decidedly technical “Step 8: rotational rubbing backwards and forwards with clasped fingers of right hand in left palm and vice versa” The Scottish Executive are to spend £2.5 million telling people how to wash their hands in a bid to tackle poor hygiene and reduce the spread of E Coli, MRSA and other nasties. Hand-washing co-ordinators are to earn a salary of £50,000 per annum!

I wrote an article highlighting recent scientific evidence demonstrating the benefits of hand washing and am convinced that it’s one of the best ways to stay healthy. So simple, yet so important.
