well, had a cracking day today :/
morning was fine.few nice easy jobs, had some spare time till next job so stopped for lunch and decided to tidy up in the back of my van.bent down and leaned over to pick something up and cracked my head off the corner of my racking and split my head :(
had to drive to the hospital and get glued up then back to work. bloody sore now though.
so that was my day. how was everyone else's?!
 
It's horrible when you cut your head, it happened to me last year when I was a driver; the wind blew the van door and split my eyebrow. My day was very busy after getting up at 6 am, then going with my daughters and son to Sunderland. :2guns::tank:

I feel for you, I'd rather split my eyebrow than go to Sunderland any day
 
During my apprenticeship I was up in the loft space of a rather large period retirement home for a few hours (very high ceilings), when I returned to the hatch to get down the ladder had gone and after shouting for a while realised everyone must have been on the ground floor. Being the fit, well built, well physically trained and agile lad I am I took it upon myself to just jump out, what's the worst that can happen hey? I've jumped from higher heights a thousand times before... upon landing my ankle snapped immediately!!

The wails were loud enough for my collegues to hear me and rushing up to me they came! "Ahhh, thank God!" I thought, "help has arrived!". Out came the cameras followed shortly by the pointing and laughing.

Needless to say, I gave up acting like a +w@+ that day lol, my pride has never fully recovered :D

That was a cracking day!
 
I stood on top of a tool chest and cracked my swede right on the corner of the window lintel. Traces of skin and hair stuck to the artex.
I am now a little bit more balder.
 
Awh,damn... When you hit your head.... Adrenaline hits...you think "ohh that hurt, but im fine..then the blood follows...

All the best to a speedy recovery ;-)
 
Well, today I was hack sawing up some unistrut, and I didn't cut me self once

Made a wonderful change!

:party:

Anyway dan, could have been worse mate

Could have been me :earmuffs:
 
If theres no blood, sweat and tears. You haven't done the job right. I'm scared all over the place. I've got scars I can't even reach now, so God knows how I got them.

If it's any consolation I've just damaged a tendon getting a beer from the fridge.

O.K. It's more likely that I did the damage yesterday cutting firewood and it's just the straw that broke the camels back.

Nonetheless it hurts like %$^&

I feel for you,its the kind of incident that should never ever happen to us drinking classes

If I've warned the wife once about moaning when I want a can I've warned her a thousand times
Your experience shows just how close I have been to an accident but managed up till now to avoid

Very early on in our relationship we had a similar discussion.

I'm the man I earn most of the money so you get me beer from the fridge.
To this day she knows her place.

I get her a glass of wine when she asks for it and ask her permission before i go and get myself a can . :)

Looks like you've got Tidyboiler's twin sister.
 
My other half does get a little homesick when we drive past a layby.
:)

Aye well .. when we're out & about and see any Pikey encampments she always wants to go to look at their horses and ask if any of the Pikeys knew her Granddad!! (NOT strictly true, but pretty damn' close! ............. The next bit is true)

I took her to the Town Moor Hoppings a while back (it's a travelling fair) and she was like a kid in a sweetie shop. She made a bee line for the shooting gallery and made-out to the elderly stall holder that she didn't know what she was doing and then proceeded to win all the prizes.

Turns out her aunty ran a shooting gallery & she was brought up on it. She's a crack shot with a rifle and she likes playing with shotguns as well so I have to be a bit careful.

She learned to drive on her Uncle's Dodgems and it show in the way she drives on the roads today ..............

Hahahahaha brilliant! :D
 
Erm...... can we just compare notes as to who passed their driving test 1st time?????????? not so fast Geordie Spark!!!....... :gunsmilie: :auto:

Yes pet ..... but on the day you took your driving test you wore a very short skirt and a very low-cut top.

I had no such weapons at my disposal.
 
the driving examiner's got a lovely dog... a black labrador with a hi-vis vest.
