On the same weekend we had also done a home-bottling of some bulk wine we had bought from a vineyard up in Qld's Granite Belt. So we were combining our Chili harvest with a "first-bottling" tasting of our bush red. Bad combination.

I was on harvesting and chopping the chilis. After an hour or so and a few reds, I decided I needed to step behind a tree and did so without thinking about the chili juices on my hands. The result was excruciating. My wife could barely stand for laughing at the sight of me on hands and knees over a bucket of water sluicing water onto my offended parts.

It was not my finest hour.
