Cue one totally smashed nose, lots of blood everywhere and a trip to casualty.
Took me months to get over - had to have the cartilidge rebuilt eventually and it's never been straightened properly either.

Nearly dislocated little pinkie of my right hand.
Got a lot of swelling and the tendons is torn.
Will be without full use of right hand for a few days. Hope I can still fire up the mower, got a wicket to mow tomorrow.
