when i booked in at A&E on sunday morning
and told them how id done it, the receptionist
said ............... can you confirm your D.O.B again sir?? ??
exactly, no chance.
I got twatted on the shin playing five aside one evening, got home, put some frozen peas on it and ate me dinner, took peas off and there on the shin is a fist sized bruise, not only in area but how far it stuck out, bearing in mind there's not much flesh on the shin the missus had me straight up A&E, still in my footy kit.
Receptionist. What have you done, (show her the leg) how did you do it?
Me: Playing five aside.
Receptionist rolls eyes and tuts, Take a seat.
Triage nurse: how did you do it? rolls eyes and tuts
Doctor: how did you do it? rolls eyes and tuts
Radiographer: how did you do it? rolls eyes and tuts.
hang on, just because I'm 36 I shouldn't play five aside? so I've packed it in to pursue BMX instead.
I got to be honest when I end up the hosi from a BMX related injury I'll tell the truth, I once also had a beer glass break and slice a finger open whilst washing up, I went to A&E to get it stiched up and told them what happened the nurse said she couldn't believe I told the truth as usually men with domestic injuries make up some sh1t about a fight or something in a pub.
