Poke in the eye

[greenlake]

Got a twig right in the eye yesterday doing the gardening.

Hope it wasn't a big twig....

Bet you feel like a sap

Give up dangerous stuff like gardening. Stick to base jumping.

FFS go to A&E.

WHS. Noone will think you're a wuss. I've only been twice, once when I cut my head off & the second time when I died. Couple of aspirin and I was as good as rain.

Seems to have recovered quite well now, 2 paracetamol on Saturday evening then 4 pints in the pub took the edge off it. Thanks for all your concern.

Once bertha goes I must go out and clear the pile of branches I left on the path.

The night before my wedding I was putting something away in the shed and a branch whipped and caught me in the eye. I ended up in A&E and I found that I had a scratch on my cornea so impressive the doctor gasped when he saw it. That was seriously painful, it occaisionally flared up but if I blinked it was agony and if I rubbed it it was agony. Luckily it did not strike on the wedding day in church.

Should have taken the blow on the head.

It didn't stop you mixing your metaphors though

I think he means he was right as gold

I had a scratched cornea once as a result of a bizarre riding accident. Turns out I had a bit of metal behind my eye.
The drugs don't work, man.
