OK, you,ve recovered from a hectic/boozy Christmas day so you are now authorised to reveal your toughest/weirdest challenge from the day itself.
I'll go first and I'll give you a prize (not really) if you can beat this.
Down at my folks place. Washed my car on the 23rd and said hello to the folks elderly lady neighbour as she was putting something in her bin. Nice enough old bird, top 80s but all fine, speaks to my olds a bit just so she can call on them if there was ever an emergency. So she knocks on the door at about 11am on Christmas day, I answered said hi and called my mum. The neighbour comes in and starts saying to mum she's got a bit of a personal matter to talk about and needs some help, says "its a bit personal" - cue me leaving them to it. Whilst walking away, I overhear the neighbour ask my mum whether she's squeamish - mum isn't. 20 secs later, mum calls me and the neighbour is pointing at a tooth that is waggling around in her mouth making it nigh on impossible to eat without hurting herself. Mum isn't squeamish but vollunteers me to pull the f**king thing out!
So we get her sat on a chair. Last time I pulled a tooth out it was my own when I was a kid. Anyway, I get a tissue and wrap it round her tooth, explain to her that it might hurt and will certainly bleed. Big tug and I can feel the roots ripping - yuk and apologies - but its not out yet. A second go and out it comes. Get her to bite on some rolled up tissue to stem the bleeding and I'm washing my hands like I've never done before!
I'm off to be sick, again, but perhaps you can try to top that in the meantime...can't wait to go home!
