I was going to have a little play with my new TIG welder today but I had a wee misshap !!??

Went up to my top shed to see what alloy offcuts I could find.

Now that part of the garden is where my wife keeps her ducks & chickens.
Mooched up there in my slippers & with a nice cup of tea in my hand

Being a lazy git, couldn't be bothered to open the gate & stepped over the fence

Found some bits n bobs & left them there for Junior to fetch down to the workshop

Come out from the shed, our Yorkie was paitently waiting over the over side of the fence for me.

There was I, sipping me cuppa as I stepped over the fence. My foot caught on the top of the fence as I stepped over

You guessed it, I went down like a sack of s**t, throwing my tea all over the dog ( Just as well the tea wasn't hot ) :D :D

Fortunately it was a soft landing onto the lawn.

The funiest part was that my wife seen it all from the landing window.
I could see that she was pissing herself. Must be the Cornish in her :rolleyes:

Anyway, no harm done, just tweaked things a little so been having a bit of a rest today.
Feeling none the worse for it now though.

Moral of the story: Don't step over fences when your legs are a bit wonky ;)

The poor little dog was soaked :o

Mind you, he used it as a good excuse to bounce me :D :D

Being a bit wonky does have its funny moments at times :D
