was changing a l/rover gearbox many moons ago while still in the RAF & with the RAF Regt, Me mate had skived off (again) & I was ready to jack the new box up & kick it in, I got impatient & jacked it up got under it & started to wiggle it in, the jack slipped & I KNEW the bugger was gonna fall so I scooted out, My left overal cuff caught on the thing & down it came, I felt a bang on my ring finger & a sort of 'pop' ! I got up cursing & shaking me hand, blood flew all over my face --- Then I looked at it & fainted ! It resembled a teaspoon sorta shape but with 'meat' hanging out of the split !
got to the med centre & the doc said "put your elbow on the table" I did, He then proceeded to cut the 'meat' off ! --- cue another faint !

YEH digits hurt when you hurts em !
