RE: Had to share...



My bro and I used to play with home made bows and arrows - firing over a
hillock in the local woods - until one of the arrows got stuck under the
skin on his forehead!

After that we put cotton wool on the end of the arrows - until we found out
that dipping them in petrol and setting light to them was far more
satisfying!!!

Paul.
