He should have known to start a trend from last year.

A new crazy hat each report!

Good advice though. People would try hang onto their phones rather than break their fall :rolleyes:

Insurance? And phones don't hurt like hell, put you in hospital, possible operation, lose days from work etc etc :rolleyes:

New Phone: €60~ or free
A+E: €100 + aftercare.

Pretty good advice, saw a few falls yesteday, people txting not looking where they are going and others with both hands deep in pockets leaving them with no balance.

One upside of hands in pockets is that when you do slip due to lack of balance you can't get hands out it time to break wrists when falling.

So cracking your skull (or worse) is > breaking a wrist? :eek:
