Are you accident prone?

In our department in 2014 there were 1,285 accidents in and around the home. Chip pan fires were high on the list. Surprised me that, as I thought everyone used oven chips now. 
Cutting fingers whilst cutting bread also up there high on the list. I ended up with eight stitches in my finger a couple of years ago doing this.
In the garden, equipment is dangerous, motoculteurs / rotavators and tronçonneuses / chainsaws are the worst apparently.
The elderly having accidents falling also high on the list. Then house fires also listed.
Take care everyone in and around the home and garden and croisez les doigts (cross your fingers) for a safe year.
