Most definitely....about two years ago my wife was preparing the veg for an evening roast dinner in the kitchen. I was upstairs in the man cave and I heard her shriek and call my name. I rushed down stairs and there she was holding the tip of her finger in a tea towel. She had chopped it off whist cutting through a turnip.
I drove like I was trained but no longer given clearance since retirement to the local A&E and fortunately for her the tip of what was cut off wasn't down as far as the tip of the finger bone so she was lucky they could stitch it back on.
Standing across the room from her watching the doctor performing the medical procedure and seeing first hand her reaction is an experience I will never forget.
Guess who cuts the turnip in the house now
