Florist News

Don't want this to happen to any of you. Arm yourself with a metal thimble next time you push a pearl-headed pin in a tough stem when you are wrapping a bridal bouquet. today the pearl headed pin fell off and then the pin went through the side of my thumb and through the other side - narrowly missing my nail bed.
Any of you on the floor yet?
No blood but boy did it swell up and throb. No time to sit and be nursed as wedding deliveries to be made. I did the grooms buttonholes and was met by a large huskey dog (friendly).
Wedding boys very excited - probably a bit pissed - can I put on their Carnations. Well throbbing thumb couldn't do this very well. Could I please take a picture?
Tried my best but a bit kackhanded - took second photo and was rudely interupted by the huskey dog sniffing my crotch - very, very embarassing but funny coulnd't wait to leave.

Please remember a thimble all of you. Red wine now anethetising

Hahahahaha, it's funny attaching their buttonholes for them when they are nice young men, the big fat sweaty ones, uhoh, no thanks, delegate that to the girls .

hope you're poorly finger gets better....and you're sooo right rosa

dios mio ,,that sounds painful!!

I think you should have a month on a beach to let your thumb recover!!

ouch..
orchid lover.. maybe you can patent the florists thimble?

hope it gets better quick.

Thanks all of you..............managed a bowl of Ben & Jerrys with out dribbling so must be better!

bleurgh - it's happened to me before as well, but the pin didn't get embedded in my finger quite as much. Haven't learnt from it, I do panic every now and then though and push it in with the blade of the knife.

cos slicing your finger completley off will hurt a lot less wont it

I had a near miss with some sharpeners once thought I'll just sharoen the scissors and save keep buying new ones...for future reference leave it to the professionals!!! I nearly slit my wrists still have a little scar!
