That is awful - poor man - does he need stitches so it joins up properly? Poor man.

That looks bad is he okay? lots of ice get the swelling down.

CherryPie said...

Oh crikey poor thing. Is he OK?

I hope he went to see a GP to get it checked over.

Shades said...

That looks nasty.

Liz Hinds said...

Naah, he's fine! He doesn't do doctors for silly little things like cuts on the head and bumps the size of eggs! He's far too macho man.

CherryPie said...

Well for a cut and bump that size, macho man or not you need to keep your eye on him!!!

I hope he's okay Liz, That sort of injury really should be looked at.

Barbara said...

That looks very painful, I am glad it wasn't the spade that fell on his head. Wishing him well.

Suburbia said...

Poor husband. Is he related to mine who fought a battle with a greenhouse yesterday and lost?!

I hope you did your best nursey bit!!

How's the tree?;)

sally in norfolk said...

looks very sore to me :-(

Grendel said...

Ouch!!

Believe it or not the word verification I got for this comment was 'Ibsen'.

A modern drama indeed!

jmb said...

I think you hit him with the new spade!
That looks ugly, I hope he gets it checked out and gets better soon. Is he taking a sickie?

Oh my goodness! I hope he didn't get a concussion along with the cut! Better make sure you have some aspirin ready at hand.

Rose said...

Oh my, that looks painful. I have to tell you, Liz, the heading didn't show up when I first got here, so I had no idea what this picture was about and went ahead and read your earlier post about the missing spade. Well, you can imagine what I thought you had done...
Glad to know you won't be going to prison! Well, unless you are leading the service there, of course...
Sorry, it's late; am I making any sense at all??

What we have here is the kind of synchronicity between posts that you can do without... in spades.
As long as it's clean, he shouldn't come to much harm. Having seen a lot of this, I think he'll do ok.
Bit sore though.
Been there, done that...

Your Husband was not driving in the region of North Wiltshire was he? We woke up in the early hours yesterday to hear the whine of large chainsaw. A huge tree had fallen "just like that" across the village street.

Liz Hinds said...

Thank you all for your kind wishes.

Husband is fine. He's the sort of idiot who perches in trees with chain saws, the sort of idiot who pooh-poohs cuts. He insists he's fine. Me, I'd have gone to bed for the rest of the day, moaning and groaning; he carried on chopping and digging and shredding.

Today he set off at 6.30 to drive three hours to work; I'll let you know if he gets there!

And as for these hints that his injury may have involved me and a spade ...!

DeeJay said...

OUCH - just make sure you give him all the TLC that he needs :-)

Furtheron said...

Let me just get all this together here.... you've "lost" a spade.

Your husband has a huge bash on the head.... Now you claim your husband has driven off....

Right madam can we continue this conversation at the station.... :-)

It’s good to hear you say he’s fine. However, if he falls asleep and you can’t awaken him, he ain’t fine. (I learned that when two of my fraternity brothers dropped me head first into the shower)

Elsie said...

I'm with all the others who think he should be looked at, Liz. Did he get knocked out? Even for just a moment? Then he must see a doctor. The next time he's working in the garden you should insist he wear a helmet! Poor husband was probably trying to knock some sense into himself.

Dragonstar said...

No, I don't think you're to blame Liz. I'm convinced it's something to do with that sweet-looking dog. Anyone looking that innocent must be hiding something!
Hope hubby's OK now.

further on up the road AKA Morse might just have it right! ;D
