So today was the main walk-through for Beltane, after weeks of training, time to bring our efforts at least partly to fruition.

So, in the first Red Man charge, I caught my toes in a grassy hummock and apparently sprained my ankle. Bloody nuisance thinks me, but I've done it before, and this doesn't feel like the worst. In fact, I can happily stand on it without pain, twisting is the only problem.

I was persuaded to go get it x-rayed anyway, and lo and behold, I've actually broken the fibula! Bugger. That'll be the end of the korfball season for me then, as well as making carrying large piles of red men on my shoulders somewhat difficult. Time to concentrate more on my upper-body strength maybe?

A few days off work I can cope with though, I was getting sick of it being a bit too quiet at my desk. Anyhoo, I need to work out how to go to the toilet now with a pot on my leg.


Pot = stookie = cast by the way.

Aargghh. Sympathies. It looked pretty nasty when you went over. All the best for a speedy and stress-free recovery.

Cheers! I feel your one-legged pain now by the way, and I'm jealous of your much larger bathroom!

Cheers. Thinking about it now, it was the combination of my full body-weight moving downwards into a slide and the foot twisting underneath me just at the wrong moment. I'll maybe try again next year!

Cheers! Yes indeed. Can't even do anything useful with my enforced time off :(

Boo, poor Ian. Hope you get better soon, or else use it as an opportunity to get a bionic foot, or leg.

At least you're not in pain. I guess the main thing is to take things easy so as to recover more quickly.

Ooh good idea! I'll get wheels put in maybe.

Aye, not much choice for the moment!

Aw dude, you must feel pretty gutted.

Commiserations, sir...

Oh no!! And it's such good cycling weather as well. Hope you're not totally out of the naked fire people parade game, that would be rubbish.

I'm glad you 'were persuaded' (by Lorraine perchance?!) though!

Aye, makes this year memorable if nothing else though!

Not totally, but I can't do very much :(

And yes, it was she. Just felt like a sprain to me, although that's more due to the location of the break than anything else.

Ouch! Hope it heals quickly.

Cheers. Think I owe you a large wodge of *hugs* too.
