rugby... again

was ladies day at the rugby today 24/4/10... guys get to bring their significant others and ladies get a free glass of champagne while watching their boys smash each other... fun... fun...

still not getting the draw of running into each other and smashing each other to the ground with the objective of getting a ball to the other end of a field...
guy thing...

things that happened today... nice fracture/dislocation of an ulnar... it was kinda gross cos there was blood and the bone was nicely sticking out of the skin... just covered it with sterile swabs and waited for the ambulance...
the guy was really good and was telling jokes through it all... dunno if that was his coping mechanism or him being stupid with shock...

other thing that happened... and i'm shaking my head cos only guys would be so silly...
guy got wacked in the nose and had a blood nose... so the guys solution to the problem was to ask around for tampons cos they wanted to stick them up the guys nostrils to soak up the blood...
me - i got the guy to tuck his head and let the blood run out and then pinched the bridge of his nose and put ice on his neck... the bleeding stopped and we didnt need tampons after all!!
seriously... those guys must be watching too much of "she's the man" - the movie where channing tatum sticks the tampon up his nose to stop the bleeding after having a fight...
still shaking my head... only guys...
