Thanks for the well wishing, but really all told its just a cut. I just thought the similarity was ammusing. I was very embarrased to have to go to a&e to waste doctors and nurses time going "i cut me finger, I cant make it stop bleeding to dress it or anything" :oops:
I'm glad you went and got it sorted out, anyway! :D
From the first couple of posts it sounded like you were being a bit too relaxed/macho over what sounds like quite a serious injury!
Cheers philly. Its as bad a cut as I've had (I too have embedded a stanley knife in the first segmement bone of my index finger, that was my previous best at age 16, and the last time I cut my self doing anything that can be passed off as work), but its hardly a serious injury! Last time I went to hostpital....well, no, last time I went was to take a mate who, very drunkenly, had chipped off about 1/5 of the front section of his cornea thinking it was his contact lense, and someone had to carry his 16 stone semi-comatose arse about the place...the time before that was to take a plate and screws out of my ankle. The time before that, to put them in.
And why, oh why oh why did I say index finger when it is in fact my middle finger? Made perfect sense at the time.
Anywho, on the bright side, (all this was actually sennheisers fault, I'll explain...). See, I got some IE8s, and the inserts are rubbish, and none of them gave a good seal. So I got some foam earplugs, cut out the centre, cut the core out of the smaller senn inserts, stuck them in the plugs and went hunting for superglue - a nearly completely hard tube was the best I could find, and it was cutting through the bloody hard glue to get to the still-soft glue when I lost control of the knife. Anyway, the inserts are complete, far better than any the IE8s come with and the phones utterly $%&#ing rule, and they havent even burned in yet! Very pleased with them!
