    Bloody doctors. They won't do stitches anymore. You have to go to hospital.

    Bout a year ago (this isn't worst thing thats happened to me, don't remember the worst) I had an accident on a boat. For anyone who sails I got hit on the head by the Spinnaker Pole in a 40 knot gust. So I had a sizeable hole in my head. I went to the local GP with a bandage on my head, he said he couldn't touch me in case i sued him and that I had to go to hospital. This is in Howth so I don't know where the nearest hospital is. Eventually he had a look at it and it was nothing I was out drinking pints within 3 hours.

    I don't remember this but it happened when I was very young I was still in a push chair so that young. I was at the zoo with mum and dad as you do at that age. Well anyway the folks got distracted talking to somebody I think it was friends they bumped into and I was right behind them in the chair having a great time watching the animals. They turned around when they heard me screaming and I sh1t you not this big pelican had it's beak around my head:eek:
    They talk about it often and I think it's awful funny now but I would imagine it would be pretty pants to have a big feckin bird try and bite your head off so I suppose that's the worst thing to happen to me. OOOhhhh and I smashed my shoulder in four places when I was twelve but I still think the bird thing would suck more:)

    Not really the worst thing that happened to me, but when I was very young, I too, was a very annoying kid. When I was about 6(!),I was being minded by a twenty-something girl who lived down the road from us. I was being my annoying self, don't know exactly what I was doing. Anyhoo, she could not get me to shut up, so she stuffed a load of tissue into my mouth. Nearly bloody-well choked me. When the paper came back out the girl realised the error she had made, as she had also knocked out one of my front teeth.
    I don't think she did any more babysitting after that.

    I was watching "It". You that horror film with the clown. Anyways my sister thought it would be funny if she came into the room with a clown mask on. Being the kind of kid who acts first and thinks later, I hit her over the head with the firepoker thing which is thin, heavy and made of some metal. I find it very funny to think back to. She dosen't.

    We made a ramp when I was about 9 for jumping off on rollerblades. Why put it on the road which was the only decent place to put it. My dad was coming home from something and drove up behind it. And I shout "Watch this!! Watch this!!". All day I was making perfect jumps and twists etc. Why this one I screw up?! Well my feet came up and forward in the air and I lost all control and came straight down on my ass. Man o man did it hurt taking a dump for the next month. Similar thing happend at christmas when I snowboarding which I am not going to get into.

    Oh! When I was very young. I hardly remember this. I was in herbert park with my mom feeding the ducks and there was a swan or two there. This swan comes straigh over to me and I was pretty excited I guess. I reach out for him and bites down on my finger. I pull him towards me by my finger and he pulls back and into the water I go.

    When i was 5 i think i was being chased round the house by my older sister. I ran towrds the kitchen but the door was closed. I attempted to pull down the handle and kick the door open with my foot. Unfortunately i missed the handle and kicked a pane of glass on the door. Nearly cut me big toe off. Had to get stitches on the bloody thing and it was extremely painful to walk for the next 6 weeks. I did get a pink panther colouring book outta it though :)

    a few months ago a few of us were ridin some bmx jumps, they were both wooden ramps and it was the last few jumps of the day as we were all wrecked and on my turn, i went up, did a barspin (nothin magic i was tired :D) except i came up too short, slammed my chest into the lip of the down ramp and managed to dislocate my shoulder crack 2 ribs and break one, wrench my knee, cut my kidney and pull a bunch of muscles all over the place. probably one of the worst crashes ive been in. the doc said i was lucky the broken rib didnt punch a hole in my lung. i did spit up a bit of blood, probably from the internal cut tho...

    i was in hospital a few years - long story but the short and narrow of it was i broke both of my arms... couldn't do a thing for myself...

    initially it has to be said, i enjoyed the bed baths in the morning :D but then one morning i had this really *nice* nurse washing me...

    picture this one... both arms broken so arms up on pillows... couldn't move from the bed... couldn't move my arms...

    next up she starts washing my thighs and then my johnson and surrounding areas.... and then i get a little _excited_ ... ahem....
    i couldn't even move my hand over to cover myself up! i just had to sit there and think of a prayer, a mantra... who cares... just let this STOP!!!

    if i could get up i would quite happily have thrown myself out the window!


    got another one too... same time in hospital... got a bug in the hospital and got a severe dose of the sultans revenge... usually not so bad - make a dash for the toilet... but... remember again hete that i couldn't even get out of bed without help... so i rang the buzzer and after about 5 min of clenching and squirming in the bed a nurse finally arrives.... then i got up, sat on the commode, destroyed it... imagine how much of a s**t (excuse the pun) i felt slightly bent over with a nurse behind me trying to wipe my rather damaged arse!!!!

    definately one to tell the grandkids!

    I can remember this as clear as the summers day it happened on.

    I was around eight years old having a blast at my friends birthday party, going mad running around the fields playing tag and such.

    After a while we all ended up looking down at this glassy patch of earth which was around a 6th ft drop down this wall. My friends told me that I wouldnt be able for the jump.
    I of course found this a bit of an insult in terms of my bravery and nerves of steel.

    Well anyway I made the jump with flying colurs ......... right into a very soggy, smelly and foul marsh into which all of the houses waste including toilet waste had been flowing into for years.

    It took me about 10 minutes to scramble out, I smelt like Sh*t for about 10 days, got the piss taken out of me at school for about 10 years.

    Cest le vie

    :(:(:(
