Heh heh heh. Actually, it didn't half bleed. I was slicing some potatoes on my grater that has a mandolin slicer on it. I took several layers of skin off the knuckle.  |

It's a bit like a miniature cheese slicer, and it's so easy to take a slice off your knuckles as well, but I haven't done that for a while. Not since I laid off the cooking sherry.

I have a big hole in the knuckle of the little finger on my right hand. Oooh, it is horrid. I can see the gristle.

While I was changing the plaster on my finger this evening, I managed to knock my finger making it bleed again. Don't ask.

I confess. I am the scum of the earth. While shopping today, I noticed I had bled on one of a rail of hideous tee shirts. Only a tiny bit. And it did blend in with the pattern.
But I slunk off.
I am a bastard.

I am a bastard. My Mum worked in a curtain shop for a while. It's surprising (or perhaps not) that the 'nets on display used end up with any number of stains!  |

I thought you would all hate me....I am so relieved to have confessed. I may go back there and try to find it, and buy it. Or not.  |

You know that bit of skin that joins your thumb to the rest of your hand - the webbed bit - well, last night I pierced it with a safety pin and then dragged the pin through and all along the front of my palm. It was painful (more so when I saw the blood) & I don't advise it. Nearly as bad as grating knuckles.
That fingernail I sliced off in the car door has fully recovered, as if nothing happened, except that the white tip extends further down, and the new nail is strong as anything - unbreakable, unlike the rest of my nails which all broke or chipped this week and I look like a minger.

Something to do at the time I expect! I'm a martyr to accidentally slicing off that bit of skin just to the left or right of the thumbnail and then it sort of 'hangs' and until you can get to the nail clippers and hack it off you end up wiggling it all day and it just gets slowly more sore. The worst ones are those that come away from your toenail and are really sharp. More quality conversation!! ;D |

I really think we should have a thread that is kept bumped up so that people can add their ailments and accidents to it and keep everyone advised. I'm not suggesting things like constipation, piles and such stuff, because no-one really needs to know about that and it's not that impressive, but certainly sticking pins into your hand and grating your knuckles are always interesting subjects. And if anyone has fallen over recently, do let us know. Trubbs and I do like to laugh at with you.  |

I went to the pub for dinner yesterday because 1) it was too cold in the kitchen and 2) I couldn't be bothered to light the fire.
And so I ended up suffering from the local Arsenal fan. He's usually relatively harmless, but yesterday he was pissed and decided to try his hand at throwing "witty" insults in my direction. (Newcastle United thrashed Arsenal a few weeks ago. I may have reminded him.)
Getting tedious it was, until eventually his wife piped up "STFU, Colin, you're such a fecking arsehole!" Everybody in the (tiny) bar agreed loudly, and it turned into a pleasant evening, and the local lamb was delicious.
(I almost fell down and grated a kneecap a few times on the way home, but not quite. Sorry about that.)

Piles, bunions and gout: all are funny - unless you happen to suffer with them. I feel your pain o, but I'm not interested in the photographs. Grammar alert: is it 'suffer from' or 'suffer with'? |

On the grammar thread I was just talking about swear words.
Arse is an excellent word - one that I use quite a bit. On the other hand, the American version "Ass" is very lightweight and has no 'oomph'.
