Title: How to get a ' trout pout' without surgery....allotment style....!!!
Post by: Deb P on January 14, 2016, 16:32:16
Went to the allotment this morning as it was sunny for a change on my day off. Had a lovely few hours in the sunshine doing a bit of weeding and tidying up, and as I left noticed the front fence panel had come adrift. Spent a few minutes struggling to get the blooming thing back in place, when the top rail suddenly snapped as I was pulling it upward, thereby smashing myself really hard in the mouth!  I actually feared for my teeth as it really hurt, but I now have an inadvertent ' trout pout' as my bottom lip swelled......OH was sympathetic......"did you win"?  :boxing: :boxing:

At least you didn't need surgery  b e c a u s e   of the trout pout.  Hope it is better very soon, not a nice thing to happen.  And yes, lots of sympathy and pampering is definitely the order of the day.  Would really yummy ice cream help with the swelling?

Ice cream would be lovely, but son has used it all up making  liquidised fruity drinks with his new plaything; a 'nutri-ninja' he got for Christmas, sigh. I will just have to go old style with paracetamol and a glass of red wine............ :toothy5:

I hope it goes down soon.....I'll be a laughing stock at work tomorrow! Who needs botox, just a lump of wood and brute force! I clearly don't know my own strength.....

How are you doing Hotlips, if you need a cure, put a bottle of gin in the fridge for a couple of hours, drink gin then rub your lips with the cold bottle.

Deb.
      Did you really get your teeth into the fence repair job,or just pay it lip service?
I hope you are OK.
