No new bike for a while...

I am off work for a while :) But, I am hobbling about on crutches :( Nor will I be able to get my new bike, as I won't be able to ride it! I've sprained my ankle & probably torn a couple of ligaments, the doctor actually thought I had broken it given the immediate pain, swelling and bruising, not to say that I can't put any weight on it. X-rays are clear though, thankfully!

You would think it would be as a result of gadding about in high heels on Saturday night at the work Xmas party, wouldn't you! Nothing as exciting as that! We were taking the kites out yesterday, and I stood on a log to step over it. My foot that was on the log simply rolled (but the log didn't) and down I went! Mix that with a bit of a hangover, and there was a few choice swearwords (but thankfully no lunch!) coming out!

Bugger Anne... :? Hope you heal up well.

On the bright side, you can't drive due to your injury, which means you can get plastered at all the parties over Christmas! ;)
