It's funny, burns are a type of injury you never seem to get used to. Working in a kitchen I get a nasty burn at least once a month and they suck every time. At least cuts and bangs the pain fades within a few minutes, burns hurt for days.

I've never burned my legs on my side pipes. I'm always sure to step out of the car as far as possible :) . However I forgot to tell my girlfriend a while ago about the side pipes and they got her.

Olivier,
Go get a a cutting of an Aloe plant, cut it open (leaving the gue) and tape the Gue side over your burn and leave it there. this works like magic... I know you have those plants all over down there... :yesnod:
