Nasty Mozza - just goes to show doesn't it that you never know what's round the corner...

 

I did a really tricky eucalyptus reduction - over power lines and a minor road - several weeks ago.... went fine even though it was really leggy and the wind was strong......

 

Got back to the yard and a mate pulls up... I get out and sort of go to shut the door of the truck behind me and caught my finger in the door! Minor fracture!

 

Pales in comparison with your wound but it does make you wonder if someone up there is having a right good chuckle :lol::lol::lol:

Am I the only one who would like to see a picture?

 

I did give david bailey a quick ring when my hand was stuck to the fence for some proffessional shots but he was busy and couldnt get there in time!! :sneaky2::sneaky2:

Hope your tetanus is up to date. Make sure you keep your eye out for any sign of infection too.

 

Nowadays the thinking on tetanus is that if you have had one in the last ten years you never need another one!! I went for a few years of getting a couple a year on average. Then when i opened up my finger back along they said i didnt need one if i had ever had one!:confused1:
