Freak gecko accidents are quite a riot! Situation watching a serious movie when a gecko near ceiling hit the fan breaks its tail, the wriggling tails falls on the floor and scares the hell out of everyone.
My house on the other hand in Bangalore was a haven for David Attenborough.

To get there early is on time and showing up on time is late

Reminds me of a movie night (small private party) at the US Embassy in Kathmandu. About ten of us in a room watching Rambo - First Blood (i.e. pt.1, back when that was a new release). I leaned back on the sofa and brought a heavy curtain rail down right on my head. The others were laughing, at me being caught up in the fabric etc., until I got it off with blood spuming everywhere.... the irony is that in the film Rambo rather nauseatingly stitches up his own wounds, and here was me and the others all almost passing out ...Max Headroom wrote:Wahaha!

Being in the US Embassy, are you sure it wasn't a live feed from Iraq or somewhere !

You can be a king or a street sweeper, but everyone gets to dance with the grim reaper.

The weird thing was they stitched it up, and then under the stitches they secured a thing like a tampon. (!?). Then a bandage over around my head, and also down/around my chin. A bit OTT for a 1-2" gash.
Of course next thing I dig was smash my 'Tampax' on a door-jam and almost take half my scalp off. Agh!!!.... Really... not... fun ....
