All Breakages Must be Paid For

Thank you all for the gorgeous flowers.

Brief update. Went to Fracture Clinic on Thursday where the doctor recommended I ditch the crutches and weight bear. By Friday my foot was very sore and swollen so we decided to go back to A and E and get them back. Protocol, or as Littlejohn would say 'Elf and safety, decree that I have to be remeasured for them so need an assessment. Of course as luck would have it the waiting room was full. Anyway half an hour later I got to see the Triage nurse who was totally sympathetic and let me have some more crutches without seeing a doctor. I got the impression they were not impressed with the Orthopedic lot who "are a law unto themselves." Very confused about whether I should or shouldn't weight bear. Any ideas??

Thought about you all on Saturday thinking where you would be at various times in the morning. Really missing running. On a good note, the horses have been washed and brushed and ridden and I have even started to clean their tack. If you fancy running this direction I offer a good mid run tea or coffee.

Hope to see you all sooner rather than later.

I know what a triage nurse does, but is the word a mnemonic?
