Thread: Silver's Leg Massacre, Umm I Mean Shave

Thanks Gents, that gave me the laugh I really needed this morning.

Yes my poor legs have taken a bettering over the last 2 days. The bite eventually stopped bleeding 3 hours after the incident, I didn't even realise my legs had copped it due to the nibbles on my hand (which is fine BTW).

Neighbours sister has an 8 week old Blue Staffordshire Bull Terrier who came for a visit last night so I could meet him. I was holding the puppy and Tara and Georgie decided to square off with each other. It all happened so fast.

The last thing I wanted was for either of the dogs to get hurt, so in trying to sepparate them I moved the puppy up on my right shoulder and just stuck my left hand out between them. Georgie is responsible for the hand and Tara for the bite on the leg. Both of them were suitably shame faced about it when things had calmed down, I knew neither of them wanted to hurt me really but they got carried away in their spat.

The bite is on my right calf just a little lower down than the slice on my left. On the back of my left calf is a huge scratch with a lovely purple bruise surrounding it.

I was more p***d off about my lace tops being trashed than the bites and scratches. If this is the result because of wearing a skirt I'm back in my jeans in the future!

Butch yes I heal quickly which is a blessing and I have noticed that straight cuts heal faster than any others, thank you for the concern.

oh you poor thing you must've been in shock later! hope you had some rescue remedy- helps every time!

I don't mind the nicks really. I just lost my focus and was very aware of Spike hovering with the phone camera mutant.

I see you are at the leading edge of the latest fad... Leg nicks! Its the latest status symbol! The more nicks you have the higher up on the social ladder you are!

Seriously though, let them legs heal! Take care now!

Hats off to the ladies!

It's great to see more people using straight razors, especially women.

As for the cuts, at least you can cover up your legs! Sometimes I have to roll into work with something like that on my mug :eek

(C utz, in the lab, working....the boss walks up to ask me a question, I'm thinking, "Please don't ask about the dueling scar, Please don't ask about the dueling scar, Please don't ask about the dueling scar")

Great work Silver!

ouch! I tried to shave my legs with a shavette once! I´m not sure if I will try again. I did cut myself, not bad, but I was pretty nervous. Must say I prefere a safety razor!

Have you tried a styptic alun pencil for your cuts? Hurts a bit but it stops the bleeding really fast!
