[chickadee]

Ouch!  how did they get like that?

[DOVEScot]

I was putting a strip foundation in for the extension and the joiner jumped in to give me a hand to float the concrete round the strips, the very same happened to him as he only had normal boots on, some people take really bad reactions to the lime

Good thing was he pulled the nurse that done his dressings ;D ;D ;D
