Sat in a&e.
Think this qualifies.
Archery and nose picking going to be trickier from now on.

While I'm in pain you can all have fun guessing how this state of affairs came to be.

You misread the signs and touched the MIL inappropriately?

Must be something slicey, a disc brake incident of some sort?

edit - Can't be disc brakes, or you'd have posted on the Bike Forum. I'm throwing my vote in with woodworking, rotary saw (just because mine terrifies me any time I use it).

Do you have a matching one on the other hand where you tried to show them how it happened?

Remarkably not wood related.

Rotor incident closer but, yes, in chat not bike forum for a reason

Might see if I can close the wound myself with some superglue. Drac, got any advice?

That is a very good question.

All I can come up with at the moment is that I momentarily lost the ability to think like a competent adult.

However it reminded me how surprised I am to have made it to 40 with everything else still attached

actually knowing Mark (stoner) as I do, he's not really a lager man. So you could while away some of that slow hospital time designing lager-mitt-2 which would be adjustable for Creme De Menthe. Brandy, Absinthe and other beverages of choice,

Obviously any actual modifications would need to be done with hand tools only an under strict supervision.

Alan, I think that's the plan. Whip of the last bit of the index distal phalanx (oooo, get me and my new lexicon) and grab whatever skin is left and sellotape it over the stump.

After decades of thinking cleaning / lubing motorcycle chains with the engine running and in gear was a stupid idea, I tried it a few years back and found it made the whole palava so much easier that now I do it all the time.

This thread reminds me of the potential downsides......

Whip of the last bit of the index distal phalanx (oooo, get me and my new lexicon) and grab whatever skin is left and sellotape it over the stump.

The technical term is 'terminalisation of stump'.

If it involves very small sutures and the operating microscope it will take a surprisingly long time.
