Kitchen accident causes loss of top of finger..

[stoatsngroats]

...and worse, unable to ride!

I know about using safety guards on blades etc, but I chose not to, and am now missing the top 1/4 of my finger! :?: (It landed next to the slices of cucumber )

The worst bit of this is I can't ride my bike for the next 2 weeks or so, or I'll run the risk of 're-bleeding'......

Please, feel free to admonish me......I'll be missing from the IoW Randonee

Bad luck, at least it will stop you picking your nose.:?:

Did they not try to stitch it back on?

Permanent loss? I managed to cut off the pad of my left index finger, they stuck this wierd seaweed looking substance on it to help form a scab. The scar is annoyingly small :?:

Thought of a brave, heroic cover story for when people ask you why you have a runt sized finger?

You sick Barperson......
It thankfully was just the pad, right-hand ringfinger, (and , technically the Cucumber-third-locating finger :?: )

Also, this thread is...../.....without pictures

...and will remain so, perhaps until Friday, when it's getting redressed, if I can overcome my exceedingly squeamish nature....

This is why we get labelled as southern pansies (or something a bit more colourful).

It's just a finger, stick a plaster on it and get back on the bike.

Sounds very similar to this then....

"I caught it in a bean slicer driving wheel - old-fashioned type - and had to cut my finger pad off to get it out, so I chose the flat blade, rather than the serrated one, because I'm squeamish...."






hang - on :sick:

My CSI skills tell me that you must be left-handed...or performing the old 'juggling the knife and cucumber in the air' trick

I think the finger of blame rest with you Stoats.
