Thanks to all for suggestions and advice and I DO qualify for being over 20 years old by more than another 40 years !! - unfortunately , but I didn't see this coming. Basically no one else seems to be able to blame the picks so THAT's virtually one line of investigation ended. To the Doc's it is than, and as a builder friend told me - he hit his thumb nail and made a mess but it was a relatively simple matter of local anaesthetheic , small op. and good as new in no time. I shall report back but in the meantime thanks again. Cheers Betsy
