Ouch eggs, been in the wars?

Tripped over last night leaving my mates house, wouldn’t mind but I hadn’t had a drink because I was driving back, five hours up the hospital, one wrist in plaster and a cracking black eye from face planting my self.

So it's more of an age thing then!

 

Joking aside a broken wrist will be debilitating, suppose you'll be on light duties for a while, 6 weeks is it?

Oh man, don’t think that is what is meant when they say do a break fall.

only had a plastercast on once, when it came off my wrist and hand after 6 weeks it looked like it belonged to someone else, all strength and muscle gone, it soons build back up but it did surprise me.

Speedy recovery eggs.

Always the same, work all week in job were you can do damage to your self, and do something when just at home or at someone else's. 

We don't mend like we did when younger.

I feel for you. I broke mine in July on a Sunday riding my bike. had surgery on the Monday afternoon to put it back together. 1 plate 8 screws hold it together. 

 

6 weeks signed off. The. Something like 3 months of doing physio and light work. Still hurts still not as strong as it was. 

 

Hopefully without the surgery you should heal quicker.
