1. The time I fell over for no apparent reason at school and managed to trash my ankle for months.
2. Cut finger quite badly on a pair of tongs.
3. Mashed finger in bike chain.
4. Split chin open when I slipped on a rug while running to my brothers' room to see older brother drop younger brother's stuffed parrot out the window.
5. Sore thumb from putting stickers on prescriptions with too much enthusiasm.
6. Shuttlecock in the eye (not recommended)
7. Basketball in the face at high speed (in the school playground - I was not involved in the game and hence it was a bit of a surprise).
8. Enormous bruise/lump on back of head and chipped front tooth from fainting on the wooden floor at Brownies (incidentally, the faint was secondary to falling over and hurting my knee).
9. Painful tongue due to the older brother telling me to put my tongue on both terminals of a 9V battery when I was about 4.
and today, I can report a new candidate for #10. Sore hand from hosing Pooka using the poorly-designed trigger nozzle.
