Oh good effort Dave, no messing about with that one

Talk us through how it happened then

I can't really remember doing anything out of the ordinary. I placed a log on my block, offered the axe to the log then swung as I always do but the axe hit the right of the log and didn't split instead it fell over and kicked my axe off to the right. I had my legs apart so that in the event of a miss hit the axe would not hit my legs, however somehow it went so far right that it hit my right foot.

Gray I had steel toe cap wellies on mate, not the best I know but far better than a pair of trainers.
