[EvianBaby]

Maggie - I did the same once after I had already lit ciggie. The shock made me flinch and I ended up flicking the lit ciggie into my face too.

I have actually laughed out loud at these answers. Really funny : )

omg and i had to hide when OH carefully cleaned the back, front and sides of campervan and then cleaned the top. he complained about all the muck that was on the top but hadn't done it for about 2 years. so upset when i "smiled". now it's his turn.

ladyj it's called hysteria.
I'm prone to do that when trying to shapen kitchen knivs.

Srry, knives - I'm going back to my iPad. This PC's no good.

Mrs O i was hoping there is just one word. there must be someone on AB who knows the answer.

Once stuck my finger into a woodworking tool called a router[ pronounced rowter] it chewed of the tip of the finger and left a bloody mess. Eventually healed leaving a decidedly bent finger but very useful for pointing round corners.

I can remember many moons ago - Mr. Towie had lit a bonfire on the Sunday evening in our old galvanised dustbin behind the shed. Next day, I had a sort out of old shoe boxes from my wardrobe - I threw them in the dustbin, not realising the cinders were still hot from night before. Went back into kitchen - looked up from sink to see my shed alight - my neighbour called the fire brigade.....I was the talk of the street for many months (:o((

[lady-janine]

bigjack perhaps you could borrow vulcan's finger.

[Slapshot]

Sliced the top of my thumb off then came of Ab to tell everyone.....that was daft, get it seen to quinie
