So, after all of the Yuletide Festivities that coincide with the Primary Gifting Season (thanks, Bill Bailey), the Mrs and I wanted to go shopping for food, but wanted to do it in a cost effective manner.
Therefore, every spare coin in the house was duly bagged up so we could exchange it at Sainsburys for a food voucher.
Here comes the dumb bit. I was sat in the lounge, waiting for her to do whatever it is she does while she's getting ready. I had £40 of coins in two bags, throwing them in the air and catching them; noting the action of my hand as the coins landed in my palm.
"I wonder," I thought "how much would it hurt if I put my hand flat on the floor and then drop the bag?"
My hand hurt very soon afterwards, and quite a lot. The dumb thing is that I knew it would hurt, so why did I try it in the first place?
