Shouldnt Laugh But

[nailit]

My son makes garden furniture for a living (benches, planters etc)
Just had a phone call off him to tell me that he's on the way to A&E.
My first reaction was of an OMG type, whats happened? He then told me that he's shot a nail through his finger. I was relieved that it wasn't more serious but burst out laughing when he told me that he had a plank of wood stuck to it as well. Couldn't help myself. I feel awful now :-(

Think i'll fix him a cocktail when he gets back Gness, maybe a screwdriver?
He's on his way back home now but got go back tomorrow as he has some metal fragments embedded in his finger.
Thanks for replies (and laughs) guys ;-)

[ummmm]

Don't feel awful. Some of the injuries I've had and the reaction to them have been funny over the years

A friend of mine who came back from a skiing trip a couple of weeks ago, tore a ligament in his back putting them away in the garage :-)

Not to worry, we all get board on occasion.

Don't know what it is ummm, I cant help myself sometimes. When I was 17 I was giving my girlfriend a piggyback around some friends garden. I slipped and she fell and broke her ankle. While she was screaming and calling me all the names under the sun, I was inside trying to stifle my laughter while my friend was trying to splint it up. Its either nerves or I'm a psycho, not sure which...

Do that, Nailit......not too lethal.....make him stay off the Rusty Nails though......... x

[ummmm]

There's a name for that. My mum laughs when people die. It's a nervous laugh.
