    Operation tomorrow

    Due to breaking my foot i'm requiring surgery tomorrow, when i did it i didn't think things would snowball to being admitted to a ward a week last Sunday up until last Thursday and being let out until my operation tomorrow to have a metal plate in my foot

    I thought it would be a case of a plaster cast and out but it's obviously worse than that, all being well i should be discharged Christmas Eve if surgery goes well.

    I've had no chance to do any Christmas shopping

    I've been told to have 4 weeks off work after the Op, i'm slightly concerned about driving......... And bloody typical there's a trackday at Brands in Feb, my local track and one i haven't had the pleasure of driving... Yet

    Good luck mate, I broke my right clavicle 5 weeks ago and after an xray last week there was very little healing so I may get a metal plate of my own yet!

    Free internet on the ward, result!
    All went well today, as well as can be expected, 2hrs surgery then morphine in recovery room. Fingers crossed they're sending me home tomorrow,then it's 6 weeks not putting weight on the foot and 3 months in total for a total recovery.

    I'm sooo bored, i keep thinking about projects

    If i hear another ad for Cash4Gold blah blah......... Jeeeeez

    Anyway, if i don't have to keep it elevated i can get about. The missus Mx-5 is about as handy as a chocolate t pot! But we're getting by. I might apply for Deal or no deal, that'll pay for a ruby and a beer!

    Talking to Shoppers a couple of weeks back and 2010 is the year for tracks, can't believe Brands is in Feb. The Ring in April/May is something i'd like to do
