Whilst on my evening constitutional I took out my tin of Viking Dark, opened it to take a sniff before the snuffing, the wind got up and a pinch went in my eye before I could get it to the nose. I don’t recommend this as a way to get snuff into your system.
“Gimme a shot of red-eye!” :)) For the same reason I now blow my nose with my eyes shut. A bit of snuff pinging back off the hankerchief isn’t good.
Very wise, lesson learned.
I used to work about 15 mins walk from where I lived. To avoid chapped lips in the winter, I used to smear a thin layer of vaseline on my lips before leaving the house, and then wipe it off when I got to work. One morning, I opened a tin of snuff just as a huge gust of wind came, and got a face full of snuff. I got a bit in my eye, and it stung pretty bad. When I arrived at work, everyone burst out laughing at me, because an even coat of snuff had stuck to the vaseline on my lips, and it looked like I was wearing brown lipstick
You need some snuff shades
