Vacuosity

Phew

The second story in our series of eye injury stories comes to us today from my brother James.

Apparently James, who likes to be called Jim, almost gouged out his eye with a green-handled Robertson.

He has been working steadily, remodelling an apartment that he plans to move into eventually. This project for him is something akin to my cupboards.

Anyway, as he was trying to pry something with a screwdriver, it slipped and the tip went straight into his eye socket. He felt the blood trickling down his face, and went to the mirror. It was one of those "I have to look, but I'm afraid of what I'll see" moments.

As it turns out, he has a very neat square hole just beside his left eye. * pause, be thankful, breathe, continue *
