    Re freckles: I am now in my sixties and remember well, how my Dad (God bless his soul) made me go to bed with a saucer of vinegar, one of lemon juice, and some cotton wool.
    The lemon was for fading the freckles on my face, the vinegar was to dispose of the warts on my knees, and the cotton wool was for applying both. You know what? They both worked !! No more freckles or warts. Dinky die.
