Disagree, I'd done the jump 20+ times but it went wrong on this particular go.

What's the damage?

What's the damage?

Fractured scaphoid. Doc was shocked I wasn't in tonnes of pain, but in honesty a bunch of nettles hurts more than the fracture. If I knew 100% it would heal correctly I wouldn't have even bothered going to get it checked, thought I'd better be safe though

Aren’t you a bit old to be hurting yourself falling off a bicycle?

Be very careful with the scaphoid, I broke mine and was misdiagnosed as a sprain, two weeks later back to A&E after MTFU failed and the consultant who looked at the X-rays said if he'd seen me initially he'd have put it in plaster and treated as a break as a precaution till the healing bone showed on the X-ray. Roll on 5 months and the bone died and I had to have a bone graft and Herbert screw fitted. Apparently it's got a rubbish blood supply so takes ages to heal.

Yup, similar story for me, have done both my scaphoids, (not at the same time thankfully) and both times was an absolute fucker- as Ming says, it's one of the worst bones you can break in terms of healing time, both times mine weren't right for ages, was limiting and it got really frustrating

The schaphoid is shit to break. I've loads of ex racer pals with problems from them.

Not trying to scare our noble leader, but it's the one to look out for.

Just to add to the positive vibe, scaphoid, 10 month to heal properly. Though I did cut the cast off to try and finish the club championship!

Today I got a kebab injury.

Was hot today and CBA to do the garden work in hot sun, so walked into town for a few cheeky cold ones with pals. All was well and headed to local kebab shop on way home. Amazing chicken wrap. As I got up to leave, huge pain behind right hip.
Painful 20 mins walk home.

Just woke from customary afternoon nap in agony. Bugger.

Stuck on the terrace sofa. Still warm and waiting for ibuprofen to kick in.

Got my roof fixed after leaving it for way too long! Best bit was the guy came round and said to refit and replace some tiles and repair the flashing round the chimney it'd be £300. I agreed and said you owe my Lad a drink as he'd told me to ring you. He said who is your lad and I told him, he said didn't realise it was his place, call it £200 then. It seems it's not what you know but who your Son knows! #proudpop

Got a good look at the critters currently scoffing down Guinea Pig food at the squirrels picnic table in the back yard. Four rats, two big bastards (one gray, one black) & two half size bastards (also one each grey & black). There was a big punch up when #4 arrived for his dinner reservation.
This probably explains the dearth of squirrel sightings over the past week.

No more feeding until the squirrels show up again.

Buy a cheap air rifle and see to them ZRX (your old blunderbusses will be a bit of overkill).
