Default Gardening injuries! Ouchy!

Was out gardening yesterday in just a vest top, and picked up a couple of nasty insect bites.

By 5am this morning, the bites were egg sized, inflamed and itchy as all hell.
One trip to my local primary care suite later and Im back outside digging up alliums.

Oh the wonders of hydrocortisone cream!

What have you done to yourself?

Why did you drop a sledgehammer on your foot?

Because it seemed like a good idea at the time
