    Many years ago I learned how to kill fly"s with my hand when a swatter is not around. Well don't do it around your sewing. This pestie fly came around and I was going to get that little bugger. Slapped at the fly and forgot that my sewing needle was there. I looked at my hand and saw the eye of the needle and thread hanging out of my finger. The needle went in half way. I then had to pull it out as nobody else was around. Not a club I wanted to be in but it is the second time in my life I have done something so stupid.
