cut my finger off on a piston on a printing press (down to the first knuckle), i had it put back on but it didn't take so had to go and get it cut off for good in surgery, they gave me an appointment to have it done but it was the day after i went on holiday so they brought it forward 24 hours and did it under a local anaesthetic, during the procedure i could hear the flesh being cut away and the bone being clipped etc, it wasn't good. Had the snip a few weeks ago and they had to administer more anaesthetic half way through as i could feel the lot, that hurt like hell.
