Don’t smelling salts give off ammonia gas?

Candy, Were you wearing a dress with a bustle at the time and fanning yourself?

Re: How stupid am I!

I was given smelling salts as a child when they could not wake me up from a general anaesthetic. It felt like someone shoving sticks up my nose. I was in such a good place before they woke me in such an unpleasant manner. They did smell of some perfumed oil but that's the last thing you noticed. I wonder if ammonia saved my life or would I have just woken anyway.

LOL, no Artangel, but I think it was in somebody's grandmother's things when I was a child. It will make you sit up and take notice!

You girls made me laugh.
I was puzzled by smelling salts.

Hope you are OK SP.

An elderly man I used to know mixed two chemicals on the floor when he was cleaning and ended up passing out and being taken to hospital.

I've got Harpic liquid to clean limescale in the bathroom and that stuff is hazardous. I always make sure I'm wearing marigolds before I handle it.
