iano Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 managed to pour boiling water over my left hand trigger finger... cue swelling, blistering and general pain. Then discovered a neighbours ewe had broken into field, managed to skewer said finger with whitethorn while putting the fence back up. Then cut it with a box knife when herself decided I should remove an old plastic pot from a fuschia that had outgrown it. Kind of nervous about what I'll do it with it next, but it probably already has picked up some flesh eating virus that I haven't noticed yet...

iano Posted September 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 Did you also step on a rake causing it to hit you in the face? The way today is going, I'll break the finger in three places when trying to pick up the rake... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems all the clumsiness was just building up. Cut resistant gloves - now that is an idea. Needless to say, chainsaw and axe have stayed on the shelf today. Will do the firewood some other afternoon!
