DIY disastersI just can't do power tools. They always fly out of control and end up embedded somewhere they shouldn't. I've no idea how I've still got all the appendages I was born with.
Add to that the fact that nothing ends up square, able to support weight or free of sticking-out sharp bits and you can see why I try to avoid DIY.
Tell us of your own DIY disasters.

Ow Ow OwI have been on the receiving end of this 'treatment' after the tail-lift of an HGV we were unloading fell on to my foot with a lovely 'spannng' noise.
Visiting the nice nursey the next day to relieve the silly amounts of pressure, I was strangely perturbed to see her lighting a wee spirit-lamp thingy, and then straightening out a frigging paper clip. I know times were hard in the NHS in the late eighties, but a PAPERCLIP?
I was motionless from disbelief and shock as ssssssssssssAHHHHYOUFmmmmmmffffffowowowowowow. The gunk underneath did spurt most prettily, mind you. Lovely.
