That's okay, new starter came over to ask me a question this morning and for no apparent reason I decided I should jab myself in the eye with my finger.

I thought you were going to say BAM! some it tore and took a nice chunk of paint with it.

haha, i hate it when i jab myself in the eye. i did it once, was then rubbing my eye and managed to jab my thumb back into the same sore eye.


noo paint is fine :)
just deep cleaning my bike today, took swingarm off, well as far off without taking exhaust off, and cleaning rear spring, and cleaning all down my forks and under the fender. and all the little nooks and crannys that no-one can see 8)

I got an electric shock off a telephone exchange and punched myself in the face with a screwdriver :( luckily it was just the handle but still split my lip open.

I nearly knocked myself out removing the water pump from my Land Rover. I had two big spanners in the engine bay and had to get on a chair and pull the buggers together as hard as I could to undo something.

When it came free I smacked myself that hard, it all went a bit black for a moment and my knees went weak. I wobbled up to the house to ask Gruntygiggles if I was bleeding and she just laughed at me...

Use a hairdryer on the stickers it warms the glue and they come off a doddle, not burst lips or anything
