"Casualty moments"

[rogerzilla]

What have you done today that the health and safety people wouldn't like?

I mowed the lawn with a petrol mower while half-cut.  But I didn't get cut.

[Pancho]

Put my daughter's suitcase in the car without having attended a manual handling course.

[Rig of Jarkness]

I posted something onto POBI

[mike]

crawled along behind the hedge with an axe in one pocket and a saw in the other.

[Jaded]

I believe this is best illustrated with a photo



Only mains, so not too serious. 

[Chris S]

Turned on the kettle with wet hands.

[Oaky]

Lifted a teacake out of the toaster using a metal knife.

[chris]

Ignored the 'lifejackets must be worn on this jetty' sign

[rogerzilla]

Leaned out of the bathroom window while half sitting on the windowsill and half standing on the toilet, trying to prune wisteria* with both hands and some heavy loppers.


*yes, I must be middle-class scum, I know.

[Palinurus]

Today? I wasn't out of the bed long enough to endanger myself. Had a lie-in, then got stuck into a book.

Just starting to think about going cycling. Dynamo lighting is just about the best improvement I've ever made to my bike.

I did stand on a bass combo to hang a curtain, and I never hold the handrail when going downstairs.

Also half cut? Nothing like a bit of alcoholic lubrication for getting on with the awkward jobs, eh?

I attended a children's party with my son and did not know where he was for approx. 80% of the time.

Let my daughter use power tools (electric saw, hammer drill) without (all) the correct PPE - she was standing on a stool when she used the drill

Nah, sober for that one.  I'm not completely reckless  

[Bledlow]

Stood on a chair to get vases down from a high shelf.

[gordon taylor]

I cut the grass with the dead man's lever (on a petrol mower) tied up.

I always do. 

[chris]

I'm just about to tell Mrs Chris that I'm doing an Audax on Saturday. If I don't post again in the next hour can someone please call an ambulance?

Although thinking about it that's probably about the safest way of doing it. Damn thing wasn't going to tip over or break.

Unless someone played "The Brown Note" through it...

[Palinurus]

I took the precaution of unplugging it first.

Very wise.  You don't want things to get backed up.

Phew I got away with that!

is that not what toe-clip straps are primarily intended for having converted to spd's?

BUT... do you know what she will will be doing while you are playing

Wrong time of the year 

Ours is in glorious bloom after its haircut last autumn
