WARNING....Never use your foot to brush off a spec of bird poo!
« on: July 31, 2011, 07:06:30 pm »
i did this, planning to brush it very very gently.....just above the rear wheel arch.

result, removed the birds deposit but left the body work with a 2inch scratch, (must have had a bit of gravel on my shoe)  another lesson learnt in life! dammit

it was a real flakey bird poo that i was convinced just needed a helping hand........could not be bothered to walk into the house and get a sponge / cloth........... yeah thought it was a great idea, should have maybe taken the shoe off and controlled it using my hand, i wasnt helped by a couple of on looking pedestrians as they through my balance right off......!

anyhow, as mention, a lesson learnt in life, i now know not to do it again....also i can pass this knowledge onto everyone else  :rolleye:

While we're at it:

Don't check to see if the kettle's boiled by sticking your finger in it.
Your tongue is OK for checking a 3v battery, but not the mains.
Any container with braille markings won't have lager in it.


I'm sure there must be more...
