Detention! Aw! Sir!

Not fair. I've been picked on. By a bully. I feel I have a genuine beef. I shouldn't get detention, and I don't see why I should mince my words.

I hope you'll be pleased to hear, that although I managed to actually start the expletive deleted appliance.... the 'chain' itself wouldn't turn at the speed it's supposed to.

The simply appalling temptation to pull at the slowly rotating saw, and make it run properly, by freeing it, was genuinely almost too much to bear.
The fact that Mrs T was standing close by, and came out with "I KNOW what you're thinking....DON'T YOU BLOODY DARE !!".....Probably saved some fingers.  :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

Cheers - Philbo of the (still) ten fingers.

Well done Mrs T indeed ;)

If you think that temptation was strong try Googling the guy who scratched his nose with an electric drill!

I won't post here (for obvious reasons) but it deserves a Darwin Award honourable mention (didn't quite finish himself off but a bloody good go).

:-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[........Last Summer, Mrs T and I were repairing one of the sheds in the garden.....(Truth be told, Mrs t was doing the vast majority of this....I just got to do the bits where a ladder, or steps had to be used.)
Having drilled some holes in the wood, whist up said ladder....I handed the drill down to my better half....And whoops !!..... pulled the trigger.
The tip of the bit grabbed hold of Mrs T's sweatshirt and gave the sweatshirt a very nice 'twirl'.
Having recovered from the shock of nearly drilling into Mrs T's chest, I offered to switch the drill into reverse, to free the bit.
Mrs T's language was MOST unladylike.
