LOL.........anybody come across this one? Maybe the blokes also?

My wife has been here for 3 weeks and says that her legs are dry because of the cold. I talked to her about it saying it could be the change of diet or the change of water or soap powder etc etc but she says that two Filipinas that she knows that have spent time in the UK, warned her about it and said it was down to the cold weather. Also an eminent forum member mentioned it to me only just recently.

What is the solution to this? She has creams with her but as far as I can make out, they arent working. Any tips?

My legs have always been dry, as far back as I can remember but it has never really bothered me......
