Them thar crutches are breeding!
Today has been a 'busy' day. I say busy because I can't think of the correct word to describe a day that starts with me being woken up by my girlfriend screaming in pain before sojourning to a visit to A&E before reaching this point several hours later where she is dozing upstairs in bed having been sent home.
The crux of the issue is that this morning whilst excitedly getting ready to go to Duxford, Lauren slipped over in the bathroom and came down heavily on her hip which struck the edge of the bath before she finally came to a halt on the floor. She screamed, I woke up, I dialled 999. The first responder got here very quickly before a short while later the ambulance crew arrived (funny thing one of them was the same chap who had responded to my injury). Lauren got a trip in the ambulance, some x-rays and a sort-of diagnosis. The good thing was that she hadn't broken anything - the bad news that she had probably pulled a muscle and just done a bunch of soft tissue damage. Eventually she got released (with her own set of crutches!) and we came home in a taxi which ripped me off...
I'm glad she's home now but I have to wonder, I've been in A&E, Laurens been in A&E and Pyoor's been in A&E. So who's next this year?
