well we lived to tell the tale ginge went into shock as we arrived at the hospital. everyone moans about waiting hours at a&e. tonight we couldnt have faulted them. ginge was on a bed being assessed and treated within 60seconds of arriving at the desk.
i know they will prob never get to see this but i want to say a big thankyou to the staff at medway hospital they were great in our little crisis.

happened about 6:30 was at the hispital by 7:15 after one of us being under a freezing cold shower and the other under the hose in the garden. i feel real bad for ginge cos he got the worst of it. i escaped with my hand and knee where as his whole arm got it and the side of his neck
whats more crazy is that we fitted the pipe together tuesday and both agreed it shoud be fine. today it bit us in the ass. so remember guys even if pipes with a proper bead are a bit more expensive they are worth it. Last edited by AshG : 20th November 2009 at 12:02 AM.

My arm is f****ng recking.
 I feel bad because Ash feels bad, all that build time we missed. The reason we got seen in less than a min is because Ash said "my mate is outside and his face is falling off!" Morphine is great, third degree burns are not. Oh and coolent tastes like s***e Ill be OK Im a rufty tufty solider!

Andy,
I’m not that tough, I was in s***e state when we got to the hospital laying on the bed shaking like a leaf with shock, two loads of morphine and Ash stood to the side with his hand under the tap passing me cold compresses for my eyes. My eyes hurt the most, oh my god they hurt, just makes you think. I don’t ever want to go through pain like that again. Ash nice driving mate, hope you don’t get a ticket, if you do I will go halves, and you still owe me for the car park at the hospital!
