Yesterday night herd a bit of noise sounded like a banging cupboard door. I didn't really pay any attention. My 13 months old daughter goes around banging on things all the time and the fact that i was hard at work. After a while i got up and walked to the kitchen for a drink and bite to eat. I felt something cold and slimy under my foot so i looked down and much to my surprise there was a green slim looking trail leading off toward the lounge. I followed it in a hurry and on the way to the lounge i saw the walls with little hand marks, skids etc and noticed my aquarium cupboard open. Continued the trail and found my daughter with my skimmer lid and COVERED from top to toe, in skim (brown slime). I shouted to my mrs to give her a drink of water and to put her in the bath to get her clean. Mean while i made a call to the poisons hotline. After a few minutes on the phone with them explaining what a skimmer was, they didnt seem to concerned and advised to watch for any change eg. Vomiting, nausea etc. This all happened about 5 at night so i rushed down to the local hardware shop and picked up "child safety" gear for the cupboards. Got home installed them, sweat dripping as it was HOT as hell.
Daughter is fine after the ordeal didnt bother her at all. Shes the same happy little girl. Her dad ^^ on the other hand was feeling quite tired and a bit shaken up, had a bit of a sore ear from the mrs blasting me.
Lesson Learned.
