Well, pride goes before a fall - literally in my case
I just stepped out of the back door, turned my ankle and went flat on my face, hitting my face on some large flower pots on the terrace. Thank goodness OH was here! I've bashed my right knee which is turning black, the left side of my face, which I fully expect to be multi-coloured by tomorrow, and my left hand and wrist is painful.
Don't worry about me - I fully expect to make a good recovery - I've been installed on the sofa and handed the tv controls. I am not allowed to make a Marmalade Traybake this afternoon.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Dove! Oh no, i hope you are as ok as you say you are- which i doubt! Best wishes, please go and get checked out but a doc x
Runnybeak, pm'd you back, now ive seen your post, i have three words for you.... pot, kettle and black! have a good day, i hope cake will be part of the sustanance
I potter to the laptop every time OH leaves it alone He is on afternoon dogwalk and I'm hoovering. Vroom...... I'm waiting to make a phone call to see how Dad got on with the physio's visit this morning. Bet he's in trouble again. He's a trier - I'll give him that
Dove, that sounds so painful, hope you haven't broken anything. Do you think you should see a doc. Hope you feel better soon. Bet OH is looking after you. Feet up on sofa for the rest of the day please Dove. Books and cuppa on hand. Take care and hugs xx
Lesley hope your dad gets on ok this afternoon, hugs to you too. X

Hope everyone else is ok
Oh Dove what a shame. Plenty of painkillers and an afternoon on the sofa is definitely recommended. Hope you're not in too much pain. Ouch.
Don't worry about us. We'll share Verdun's cakes and I'm sure he'll send you some too. Hope you feel better soon.
Back again and can't belive your accident Dove

Dove if you send over the recipe, I'll make the traybake for you.
Feet up dove, and take it easy for a few days.
for a twisted ankle.. RICE
Rest,
Ice(or bag of frozen peas),
Compression,(strap it up)
Elevation.(get your feet up on that sofa and give the remote control a bashing with your good hand.)
Lots of hugs.xx
