How to draw blood from a digit.

[Nosher]

Bugger - I need to get wound closure signed off as a Paramedic skill..... so selfish doing it all that way away!!

For oozihng cuts from a scalpel aply superglue.  Stings like B*ggery but seals the wound.

I punched a hole in my leg  about 3/4 inch across and 1/2 inch deep ( i could see all the way inside - fascinating) and the Nurse (quite nice totty) use superglue to seal it together

The other option is to use a piece of electricians tape . it hold s the wound together better than a plaster.

Send me a form to fill in, Nosher......I'll say it was you that did my 'repair'  

....And yes, Mark.....I do use superglue from time to time.

Cheers - Phil

As for bishop knife trick that i as old as the hills.

The corparal in my Fathers section during ww2 used to do the same as Bishop but with one of the points of a pair of compasses - not as party trick but as a punishment for minor misdemeanours.  The difference was you knew he was going to stab you with it at some point ( no pun intended).  If you dared to move your hand he would do it twice

Sadly, I can quite understand why.

You're not that old, but you remember when they first planned the pyramids, when they dug up your back garden for Stonehenge, when the last mammoth died, and when the Arc of the Covenant went missing!
