Only popping down to the gate!

**stanko** · 28th October 2008, 20:03

Last Friday night I went for a quick fang down to the gate on my bucket, had the normal protective gear on , Tee shirt , jeans and slippers. Unfortunatly I didnt make it back. It was the start of a pretty interesting weekend that involved a visit to th 24 hour doctor then A&E got up sat morming bright and early for surgery. There were 14 bits of 10mm chip jammed into my elbow. We didnt get to go to Greymouth, I spend all Labour weekend in hospital, and the boss was just a bit cross with me. Bit of a lesson for us all maybe. The Xray shows the gravel they couldnt get out at the 24hr place. Dont wank on about how stupid I am, I have a wife for that.

Wear your Shit I didnt even go out the front gate !!
