Good morning internet peoples. I would like to know of your high point and low points of 2015 please
Alt:
Worst self inflicted injury?
AltAlt:
Taking pleasure in the misery of others. Now Mrs Cow has been promoted (somewhat against her wishes to return to part time work) I can constantly wind her up about being in management, which amuses* her greatly. Tell me of your ribbing

AltAlt: I took pleasure in serenading Swipey by singing the theme to 'One Foot In The Grave' last night.
More specifically this bit complete with vocal imitations of the brass section, over and over and over and over. Despite the words 'I like you more when you're quiet' I think she enjoyed it.
Cheers.

I've have several non self inflicted injuries which were horrific
But the worst self inflicted I guess would be either when I was washing up after an argument, washed a pint glass with too much pressure and it broke, as I twisted my hand round I sliced a piece off the side of my right hand. I found it in the sink when I got back from the hospital. Or it would be when I was pissing about on my wedding day, slipped on the wife's wedding dress and dislocated my knee. I've dislocated it loads of times and it usually pops right back but this time it stayed out. My wish to go on my honey moon caused me to shun the advice of others and not seek medical treatment. I had my best man pop it back in. I screamed like a child throwing a major tantrum and my knee swelled up to the size of a watermelon. I went on my honeymoon with a pair of borrow crutches and when I got back went to the hospital. Their response was "Well you should have come in two weeks ago shouldn't you!" and sent me home.

*knee dislocation 5s*
I first did mine in a rugby scrum that collapsed on me with someone else leg behind my knee which levered it off. Being stupid and young I ignored the good advice to make sure it healed properly and now it can just pop out which my good lady wife has learned how to grab my heel and twist/ pull just so.

Not as good as I thought I was.
Pretty good ramp and racing, not so good freestyle, did manage to learn cherrypicker which was about my best trick. I was (nt) pulling off a giant air stepthrough when the above injury happened

2nd West Indies Test today Tangiers, hope Tredwell gets another game. I'm worried that they'll use Rashid or Ali instead and they're pakis, not even English let alone from Kent like our Tredders.

I like the little books on bookshop counters that are really basic accounts of philosophy, historical events, religion etc condensed down into 4-6 sentences.
They have helped me immensely in my quest to look like but not actually know more about things than other people.
