Do you ever have a mad commenting moment on someone else's blog?
I did, at Marn-eh
This is what I wrote:
A friend of mine was *entertaining* a Dutch physicist who arrived late bearing a warm bottle of white wine. The white wine was put in the freezer (I know, I know, never put wine in freezer or microwave).After the *entertaining* finished for the time being, she went to get the bottle of wine which rolled out of the freezer and smashed causing her foot to be cut. And bleed a lot.
It was still bleeding the next day, so she went to the hospital and was told that she had severed a nerve. If she had been to the hospital immediately it could have been stitched.
Instead, to avoid leaping ten foot in the air everytime she stubbed her toe she had to have an operation.
This was three months after she developed whiplash at the hairdressers.
The Dutch physicist was never entertained again.
But still referred to as the Dutch Physicist (to distinguish him from the Serial Legover, Bar-steward Features etc)
Apologies to Mrs. H if you're reading this!
