..and I was very disappointed to say the least. It's never happened to me before, as I've often held my knob firmly and pressed the shiny bit in. :D
Glad to say that with a bit of minor surgery, I can now hold my knob again and everything's back in its proper place. Phew. :lol:

Viewer warning - the following photos contain graphic and uncensored images of my knob.

All I did was give it a squeeze...

The shiny bit of my knob.

A bit of reconstructive surgery. "This won't hurt at all, Mr Cuthbert."

My magnificent and fully functioning knob. Splendid.

How aggressively did you jerk you're knob forward and back before shiny accidents?

You're a bloke so you probably do it like me, firm but not too aggressive. I like to pull it back gently, squeezing the shiny bit at the end at the same time, rather than jerk it backwards and forwards.
