Re: What stupid thing did you do recently
I got engaged.
I had a good run of 46 years but it finally caught up with me. I'm not even sure how it happened, she demanded money from me, she went to town and came back with an engagement ring.
I guess the worst is to come, I will have to pay Labola. She said I have to pay the price of 5 healthy cattle, she didn't appreciate it when I said 'That's not a fair deal, swapping 5 healthy cattle for one old cow'

1. Dropped my Galaxy Note 2 and smashed the screen.
2. Lost my balance and knocked 2 picture frames from the shelf to the floor, shattering the glass all over my room.
3. Fell over in the bedroom, flat on my back, with a few things crashing on top of my head!

I roasted a chicken in the oven but I forgot to turn the gas on to cook the vegetables.

Re: What stupid thing did you do recently
Petrol in a diesel engine is potentially very serious:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/...y-mistake.html
Quote:

Petrol wrecks diesel engine lubrication processes and is particularly damaging to a diesel engine's costly, high-pressure fuel pump, which operates at up to 2,050bar (30,000psi). Petrol removes the pump case hardening and if a film of hardened metal disintegrates into swarf it will greatly harm or even wreck an engine's internal organs.
