That's right up there with Wimbledon legend Dave Beasant:

[quote]'I can remember it very clearly,' he says. 'It was pre-season and I was going into a pantry cupboard at home to get something out, and my elbow knocked over this jar of salad cream. Both my hands were holding on to things, so my natural reaction was to stick out my foot to stop the jar hitting the floor. Unfortunately I wasn't wearing any shoes or socks, and so when the jar hit my foot I got a nasty cut. It went right down to the bone and injured the ligaments underneath.

'It sounds funny but it ended up the most serious injury I had in my entire career and I was out for two-and-a-half months.'



I suggest you keep clear of the washing machine for a while :lol: .

Perhaps you were just checking that Mrs Apples had put your beer in the fridge when she came back up the steep hill from the supermarket with the rest of the shopping and all the laundry because how could you possibly have driven her down when the footie was on?
