Doh!
I understand that can be worse than a broken bone
Plenty of rest required.

Nasty,
Did that in my foot as a young un and it's never got back to 100%. Will always trouble me - hope you get lucky with it mate.

It took about 4 weeks the last time I did it!
Never really troubled me since......well until wed!
Aye Mark just tell her to pop over......the front tyres are at 2mm so could be interesting! She did say that she wasn't used to fast driving.....I take it you usually drive???
hehe
Cheers folks!

I thought you had crashed your car reading the heading
My ribs and hand are still giving me jib, think I need to go see the doc on my return from DP.

OOOUCCCHHH!!!!
Seriously twisted my ankle on site a good few years ago, ankle swole up so much I couldn't get it back in my toe-tap boots.
Arnica cream works a treat to reduce the swelling. Was very sceptical myself when told to use it but I was up and walking (sort of) in a couple of days

Seems like a dangerous job you've got there....
Take care,
Frank
