    Good work on the Kids after that effort

    My Question is
    Is the Bike ok apart from your ball dent

    The bike was an early 70's TS250 so shit like that didn't faze it too much.No usd forks you see.And the pain was a mere discomfit compared to having my sack soaked in petrol.Now that is real pain.Poor little fella looked like an angry acorn for a while after that(Also pre kids although I didn't feel like testing out the equipment for some time).

    It's about the only perk of the job in that industry. I can go and do stuff like that during work time and it's called 'work' because I'm doing an activity with the residents. I've also been known to play cricket and ride my bike (delivering Santa and giving a few residents rides last Xmas) and be paid for it as part of my 'work'. Sweet!

    He he. Long story but a few years back I was sent from my workplace at Mount Cook to the airport near my home town of Twizel (65 kilometres?) to wait for a plane to take something out. The plane was delayed by an hour so I went home to visit Mrs Oakie while I waited. My employers would be shocked if they knew what they paid for during part of that hour at home.

    guess in hindsight i guess it was my own fault very funny now but painful then
    Yes we had one of those in our team this year. Guy went down to field a ball pushed into the covers but it bounced up at knocked him in the nuts. Went down like a sack of potatoes and slowed him down for a couple of overs. Everyone thought it was as funnny as hell.

    But there lies the answer... You dont see Big Dan saying, "I think I will let my balls get caught up in the brake callipers and my sack rubbed raw from the tyre, again..."

    Zegackly! It's only taken two short years for my eldest daughter to say she wants another! What she went through with her first, and our first grandson, would put me off forever!!!!

    My work related "nut" incident:

    Worked in forestry when I was at Uni measuring trees to estimate wood volumes before harvesting. Was down in Athenree forest, middle of summer and was measuring some trees and noticed a large amount of wasps around.

    So we tried to get what we had to do done as quickly as possible to get away from them. Next thing I know I feel this buring sensation in my groin and then a sickly feeling in my gut. Put the hand in the pants and pulled out a wasp which had just stung me in the balls.

    Crouched over in pain I hobbled out to the road. My offsider radioed my boss who came flying down the road and slid to a halt beside me. Jumps out of the ute races to the back door and pulls out a machete. Then tells me to flop it out!

    Ended up having 3 days off work. Evenings at the pub were good due to the swelling
