Was at a school in Harrow drilling some metal, can't remember why now. Got the hump because the wire of the drill had tangled, pulled sharply, The drill end went in to my leg had turn the chuck anti clockwise to get out, Went to Northwick park hospital in Harrow, Saw a doctor and he told me that if I'de been a inch further I would have hit a nerve that would have killed my leg, Scary.
