The end of a long day.......

I can't think of the last time I appeared in my own blip.

But, I thought I would post my war wound, thanks to Jenny.

long story........... found mouse poo under sink - decided to block up the offending hole with pan scourers made of wire wool - decided to stretch said wool, and slicd through my middle finger instead.

After a dreadful 16 minute phone call to NHS 24, when I was asked the same damn questions several times (was it really necessary to ask if I was conscious????) the locum doctor called and I said I would get to the surgery with the help of friends.

Friends are so great. Both Pat and Jenny appeared - Jenny to make tea and look after Dimairt, and Pat to take me to the doctor's. Dr. Price was excellent.

Cut is very deep and has cut a vein, and there is evidence of only slight nerve damage. I now have a very impressive bandage to get me lots of sympathy tomorrow at work ........ until they hear what a stupid besom I was in the first place to try and tear steel wool with my bare hands......... Dr. Price said that he had done it himself, Lord bless him for making me feel less foolish!

This has taken me an age to type single handed, so bid you all goodnight!
