Ouch, got oil in my eye......

[TonyN]

I stupidly walked under a draining sump this morning, got a face full of oil!!

Hosed all the gunk out of eye, then empted half a bottle of eye drops into it and it doesn't hurt anymore, am I going to go blind? or impotent?? or something else nasty.

What do you reckon? surely it'd be all red and sore if it needed professional help.....

you may become inexplicably drawn to paj's or L.R's. if this happens you know you're going blind!

[stormforce]

Does Linda know you've got a sore red one.you can get ointment for that can't you or go to a special clinic..

It's not a good thing to do as waste engine oil is carcinogenic.

Before you go blind Tony, can you measure the O/D of the bolt thread?

Even if it was fully synthetic?



I know it wasn't a good thing to do, I didn't do it on purpose!!!

Thanks for your support Logey and Stormy!!

I can't, it left in TimberSurfs truck this morning. If I measure any others, it'll make a mess on the floor!!

Its gotta be 10mm min, 12mm at the most. I'd guess at 10 though.
