Stay safe gardening and diy

I had a thought (I do now and then) that we should be very careful not to injure ourselves.
The last thing hospitals and need is people with gardening etc. injuries in A&E. You might not get treated if they're flat out and those places are ideal places to catch things 😉
Stay safe chums!

Or risk poinking!

Re: Stay safe gardening and diy

There was a large hospital on the radio and the usually packed A&E there was strangely silent

That just shows how many of those who usually attend A&E don't really need to be there.

I won't be doing any DIL just gardening and taking extra care not to get any cuts as a 'bleeder' .

Good grief!
That is not what poinking is!
Please refer to the thread, "The Noble Art of Poinking"!
