This x-ray from a news story about some guy who accidentally shot a 6inch nail into his head (through his tooth!) and didn’t realise it for 6 days brought back memories of the time I managed to impale my head on a similar sized nail…
Must be a couple of years ago now – I was in the loft and lent forward in the dark, only to find that I’d banged my head on a beam… A bean with a rusty nail pointing out of it, which was now sticking into my head!!
How we laughed at casualty as the nurse had to give me various shots and then used a special kind of glue to seal the wound – thanks too to Alan Masters (the kind of friend you need when you do unfortunate things like this) who took me to hospital. Don’t think it’s affected me too badly… but you never know I guess!!

Oddly enough, I've had a pain in the back of my jaw for the longest time too. I just would like to think I would know the pain was from a nail gun.
Kate
is that for reals?
