I thought I could smell summat burning whilst I was using the angle grinder earlier.

It didn't take me too long to get the overalls off I can assure you

Punched my self in the face last week while tightening something, and have been wearing a black eye since

Ha ha ha! Sorry, can't help. I've done that too but never resulted in a black eye. Funny trying to explain that!

Not so long ago i dropped a diff on my finger.... Wandered out into the street in mega pain and then for some reason threw up my breakfast all over the pavement.
Weird.

Another good one, nice. I slipped with the saw last month and went into my thumb and through the nail underneath. I was running around town in my overalls with kitchen roll and an elastic band round it looking for a shop that sold steri strips whilst trying not to heave.

well i hammered my finger today and then immediately afterwards screwed a bracket into the wall and nipped my finger with it as it went back - bloody painful!

You've gotta love the way everyone is proud of injuries in the line of duty/playing with cars.

tightening up the bolts on some pallet racking at head height when the socket slipped.
Bloke I work with was chuckling for weeks.
