Today I bought some quality metal cutting discs from a reputable hardware store only to find they showered my face in red hot debris when I started cutting . Now sparks are normal and you take care at what angle you cut but I have never experienced this amount of disintegration . No damage done except a mouth of grit and a cut lip . Luckily I had eye protection on or I could have been blinded . The problem is a modern one CRAP product ! Cutting ( no pun intended ) corners no less .
This little incident reminds me that as we get older our luck starts to run out ! When your young nothing much touches you . You drive too fast , you mess about on cliff tops ect and think your invincible . Today I stumble . Today accidents seem to line up and im much more careful . Maybe we have a guardian angel till a certain age and after that we take our chances......
I think the secret to luck at any age, is not to push it too far. :)
