Stupid things

So today I started cleaning my house and went to carry the vacuum cleaner down the stairs, tripped because the cord was still plugged in the wall and I fell down 14 stairs, god damn I am sore. What stupid things have you done? 

! this is very very wrong mr woody. I would of thought a Ozzy bloke would of been outside firing up the barbie & checking the beer supplies as first job of the day :-)
I done the splits walking in my bathroom other morning as her indoors had left the floor wet & soapy
Have to be careful at our age as accidents like these could end our R projects & only ride we would have would be battery powered :-(

Very true B my mistake as deciding to clean instead of grabbing a beer and starting to rip out my old ecu  have to say though I did a proper job of falling down them.

Abit of a generalisation but i am sure we all done similar back to younger days slammed car boot onto my fingers (pain)

My own worst enemy for things like not wearing dust masks gloves eye protection etc

Worst pain yet in my life has to be arc eye ( welders flash) i gave my self not long ago worst 3 days of my life

Last but not least stupid thing is spending this full weekend with a lass instead of working on my cars hence i am awake now on my phone getting abit of car related therapy

Ouch. Bet those 14 stairs hurt...
Me. I rubbed a knuckle while wire brushing underside of the pulsar.
As a result my knuckle is now inflamed

Other than that. I have slipped on ice and broken a colar bone. Tripped and broke a wrist.
Helped lift a telegraph pole and when dropped the step went into my knee..
Was passenger in a mk2 escort and hit a transit van head on.
Put feet on dashboard to brace and shattered my ankles. Broke my nose and cut my hands. Arms and face with flying glass.

Yeah johnny anything to do with your eyes would have to be terrible. Haha yeah very silly mistake, car is always priority  

Stu that sounds crazy bad, how long was the recovery? I was passenger in a Datsun 1200 ute and had a head on with a 4wd.

I was layed up for a month and then started rehab to start walking again. I say walking. Full plaster on one foot upto knee and half plaster on the other one. On crutches. ..
Took about 6 months to walk without crutches but walked like robocop that became my name for a while haha
I was still walking strange for a good 18 months and my ancles would jar at the slightest knock
Walking down stairs was the worst! If i knocked my heal the pain was excruciating
Still have pain now and its 21 years since it happened.

Did you sustain many injuries in your crash?

^ You been repaired more than your old old Nissan lol .

Geeze mate there is nothing worse than being pretty immobilised. Ankle injuries would be horrid and the rehab even worse. I broke my nose, ribs, sternum, crushed 2 vertebrae and some other stuff. Had a back brace on for a few months, it was a shit time lol

I wouldnt know where to start ive bust myself so many times .... but i can sympathise with the hoover and stairs .... i tripped over the lead rushing about cleaning fell down the stairs hit the bannister at the bottom and knocked two of my front teeth out .... bye bye teeth

Yeah i can relate to that mate. Its shit after an accident where you cant help yourself... you was severely injured yourself then. Did you get any compo?
I got £20k and spent it in a week hahaha

Yeah got compo and spent some of it on the pulsar, brought some shares realised they were a waste of time and so spent more on the car  

Oh and to add to this I ate fish tonight that Im apparently allergic to and my face is now a massive rash 

I bought a mk1 vw golf cabby with mine. Had a holiday to zante and blew the rest on clothes and payed some debt off haha
Fish allergy? Doesnt sound good! I only eat cod haha
