I'm sitting here at the computer (which is in our lounge)my son comes into the room and sits on the arm on the couch. He leaps up and yells "Ahh Sheeeeitt!!"
"What's wrong?" I ask. He proceeds to tell me he's been bitten by a poisonous spider! What? "There it is there it is there it is!" and he's leaping round the room shrieking....
"O Dad I'm getting all hot. I think need to go to hospital. Can you suck the poison out? What do I do?" At this point he's pointing his arse at me (top of his thigh anyway) I'm still fairly non-plussed as to what has happened. He runs off to the bathroom and comes back saying "I'm sure I'm poisoned - look it's a lump. I need a sharp knife so you can suck it out!"
For those of you that don't know him - He's a 1st 15 prop, 6'3" and 114kg. Fit and strong and fearless on the rugby field. BUT he hates bugs. Worse than the most fearful screaming woman. And spiders too it seems.... I'm sort of concerned but thinking it's not too big a deal...
"Ahhh!!! It's a wasp" ...more shrieking... "Dad my arse! Look at my arse. I'll have a scar!" ... "and my hand..." What? How did that happen?
"When I reached under my arse it must have bitten my hand too"
I'm starting to laugh now as he can't decide which is worse... his arse or his hand... I had to ask....
"Will you still be able to wipe your butt after you crap?" and promptly dissolved into fits of laughter...
I like kids they're funny....
