Yep.....Vietnam War.

Stings like a MOTHERFCUKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BUT....gets the job done and then peels off by itself as the wound heals. Fecking genius invention.



For a Stanley knife....always go with the square-corner "bloody-mary" blades....they stay sharper longer...cuts are nearly always caused when the blade is dull, believe it or not. They start "bouncing around", for wont of a better term.

That's nasty Blade. Might be worth popping to A&E though bud. At end of day we pay for it no point not using it when a real accident happens. Becareful on those deep wounds too you really don't want it getting infected mate

Yep that's right..got to love the idea of superglue. That's why it sticks so well to our skins because it was designed to patch up wounded soldiers! In actual fact I had my head glued back after slamming my full body weight into a piece of metal! Brilliant stuff!

Well it was either glue or stitches and I said I hate needles and said I wanted to leave so they opted for glue lol!

Oh...yeah. I have stitches in my head from a barfight, when I inadvertently head-butted someone on the fist, and then head-butted the floor. Getting your head stitched is a very odd sensation.

Cheers Rossgo (y) I'll be alright mate. I'm pretty good at 1st aid and tbh when I've been A&E with cuts, I don't mean to sound arrogant but I can do just as good myself. It's putting meat back together at the end of the day. It's not difficult and not Rocket surgery or Brain Science (giggle)

Never has done in my experience.
Fwiw I've used it loads of times. When I had used my ex-employer's surplus I replaced it with Vetbond Tissue Adhesive.
Always have some in my First Aid Kit.

I reckon there was that much claret today try superglue wouldn't have worked. Surely you need a reasonably clean cut.

Nope, it works surprisingly well in very messy situations.

Having said that.: Well rinsed & dried off with a kitchen towel compression, makes for a more acceptable finish IMHO.

Having an early night - and not for traditional Valentines reasons either, I've got my 3rd 4am start on the bounce in the morning, feeling trashed atm.

I'm off to Barking for the day. A nice 6 hour round trip, if the traffic isn't too bad. The M25 isn't known for free flowing traffic.

Was down there earlier this week, have a safe trip. Oh the m25 can be busy as hell, or nobody on it, either way it may have many lanes, but everyone uses just the two!!! Argh!!!,.....

Have taken the day off to visit Harry Potters Place with my niece :)

Been to see a man about a warehouse.

I reckon I've unearthed a massive money laundering operation. If I disappear, the Triads have got me.

Surely you can just get them to pay you to be quiet? And a bit of warehouse room for all the bikes you'll need to buy with the quiet money 8)
