    im sorry but its a bruise at most a cut - if my mother claimed everytime i hurt myself as a child i would be set for life -i was a clumsy kluts .. i remember the incredible hulk incident in sanfords as me and my twin decided to test the paint mixing machine-we were very young and i ended up very green but these things happen , be pleased you get a £5 gift card and that she wasnt severely injured

  • OK, missed that one. That is one where you need to rise above the manner of expression - but still take on board the underlying assessment of the member as to how serious the injury is.

    That second remark of my reply to her was flippant due to the nature of the SIL saying go to a solicitor.. The first part of my reply was serious in relation to the accident and the fact that bruises and scratches come up worse after a day or two. Like the massive one on my eye where I hit it with a large server yesterday whilst taking it out.

    OP,

    I had a similar issue in Middlesborough Toys 'R' Us about 6-7 years ago. Walking around, i caught my trouser leg on a bent back of strip on the bottom section of a display stand.

    It was a green piece of metal on the leading edge of the stand, just about mid calf level. It was bent back and sticking out. I was glad i was not one of the children otherwise it would of been at knee level.

    I contacted customer services, who advised me to go purchase another pair of trousers from the retail park and return with the receipt (£25) for refund.
