We're not camping (I would have feigned any necessary injury at this stage to get out of another week of camping), so the tent peg issue is null and void. However, for the record, guide ropes are indeed more dangerous than tent pegs, particularly when it's dark or 4 in the morning. Brownies are also far more dangerous entities than simple knives, but I'm a professional and I'm sure I'll cope!
I've never seen a tent peg I'd willingly drive through my foot either. Also, the fact that I use my (booted) foot (and not a mallet) to push it into the ground means it's unlikely to suddenly attack said bodily extremity. I suspect there is some history here that makes you suspicious of tent pegs and their lust for human blood but I've not encountered any problems so far...

However i can varify (can't spell) that none have been inserted into Jo's feet during the D of E expedition. However guy rope are a whole different thing!
Urm.. I don't reallydeliriousplanetAugust 31 2005, 07:06:02 UTC
Sorry am being nosey and rummaging around on live journal. i'm afraid i don't have a clue who you are really, let alone chaotica! Though saw that she lived in York and couldn't resist making a comment about the japanese tourists!

Public posts are there for random people to read/comment on. If we didn't want people reading it, we'd friends-lock it. So you're not really being nosey.
I am boobook's other half, which means I get the fun* job of telling her that she can't run around all over the place when she's hurt herself.
chaotica_ is a friend who now studies at York Uni. I know nothing of these tourists of which you speak.
Nice to meet you!deliriousplanetAugust 31 2005, 07:27:13 UTC
I think anyone is fairly justified in sulking if someones denied them sweets :p - though i'm assuming this is chaotica that your talking about?!?! since unless it is like the whole innocent thing Jo does infact sulk ? though i think i'd rather live with the illusion that she is still infact miss honey! Hmm, still feel a little guilty for rummaging through live journal pages, but have only made mine friends only since it appears that half of the brat pack at college have live journals too and i don't really want them reading mine! anyway have fun.. i'm about to go out putting posters up for the caucasioan chalk circle... fun!
Gods dammit! Ian should not be spreading rumours or gossip about me in this evil way! I only sulk for a few moments and then either (a) agree it's a stupid idea and sit down or (b) go ahead with my original plan since no-one should be ordering me around and I usually know the limits I can push my body to (just like you, Sophie...?)
It's the guide ropes that are dangerous.
Oh, and knives.
Knives are dangerous.

No personal history, but I bet it's happened to someone. It was a case of thinking of something sharp and pointy that one could injure oneself with.

But you aren't anywhere near my sword collection at the moment, which means that you are unlikely to hurt yourself on it :P

I think she actually managed the whole of the D of E expedition without hurting herself: this is a new and shocking development.
PS how do you know chaotica_?

*She sulks. Like a little girl denied sweets.**
**I didn't tell you any of this. Shhhhh!
