    gloves?

    I never wear gloves after a close run many years ago. Yes I get plenty of splinters and cuts but have all my digits (having spent 4 hours in a&e today after slipping with a chisel!) I think it can all be reduced down to: Be careful when using tools, don’t put your hand anywhere you shouldn’t...
