And I’m now a dreaded member of the burst hot water bottle gang…

Damn. Are you ok? Didn’t burn yourself did you?

How did it happen?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I’m okay. Was handed to me and neither of us saw that it was dripping from the bottom corner. Just a little, but I’ll take it compared to what could have happened!

Oohh lucky even if you got a little burnt. It could have been much much worse.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh no! Please tell me no burns. I've nursed too many people with burns from them.

Was pretty lucky, just a light scalding. Cold water and burn aid to the rescue.
