The Case of the Exploding Mug

Justsomebloke · 15-03-2008, 14:12

So me mate popped round & i got the kettle on while he got busy with the African origami.
Pulling a mug from the cupboards i have a habit of pouring boiling water over the mug & wiping it off with a piece of kitchen towel. As i wiped the mug with the kitchen towel it Exploded in my hands like a 2nd World War grenade

Damage to my hand is considerable with a Grand Canyon size gash in my left thumb right across the pad bit

I am a Wounded Soldier

I've been brave & tough & after elevating my arm for 3 weeks the spurting gushing red stuff has subsided but obviously i will need at least 7 pints to restore my levels

Using 14 packs of plaster i have patched myself up & now sit here with life eeeking out of me wondering whether i have enough blood/energy to last another hour.
This could quite possibly be my last post so Tell all your Grandchildren about me & use me as an example to save young children from Exploding Mugs

Being quite honest i may just get a rope out now & hang myself. I cannot skin up, play my sexbox or play the violin at the Albert hall tonight. Thankfully my injury shouldn't stop me playing BF2 so not all is lost.
