Fashion victims

So you love your new wooden floor eh? Well don't forget your slippers. More than 12,000 people were injured in falls onto wood in 2002, many as a result of slipping whilst wearing socks.

And the return of flares (those of us around in the 70s already knew they were a bad idea) resulted in trouser related mishaps doubling to nearly 9,000.

For anyone not of a nervous disposition, the latest report covering 2000 to 2002 can be found here.
