Glad to see I'm not the only one who suffers from "clumsy oafitis". I've often wondered why I painfully bump into things and can only conclude it is a form of absent-mindedness.

Ah but at least I don't have your neuronal issues i.e. not having enough of them.
Hard Brexit now!

True enough, not having the prodigious neuron count that I am blessed with has preserved you from the irritants brought on by an understanding of the great affairs of life, but your place in the food chain should not be devalued despite these obvious limitations. In coming clean so publicly about the tight cerebral boundaries you are compelled to operate within, you are to be congratulated. Even more so when it is remembered that on this very forum you have opined about another of the hurdles you face on a daily basis, that of being blessed with the coordination of a shortsighted mole. In short, you may be a clumsy, bumbling, tedious little drongo with spatial awareness issues, but you have a disarming honesty about you. Like London's male answer to Susan Boyle......but without the talent..........or sex appeal.Originally posted by sasguru View PostAh but at least I don't have your neuronal issues i.e. not having enough of them.

I thought you had been beating up the American again and used your foot on his head?Originally posted by Churchill View PostBastard bastard bastard!
I've just cracked my toes on the door frame while walking around in bare feet!
I did it on Friday evening against the edge of the sofa, on Saturday morning on a tool box when the guy came to fix the central heating!
Wtf? Now, I can kick things pretty damn hard and not feel it too much but bastard door frames, sofa's and tool boxes hurt like f**k!!!!
Thanks guys, I feel better now!
May I suggest you wear steel toe-caps from now on?
Seriuosly : get better soon.
