Day 220: additional

Yesterday was the first day, since the accident in February, that I went to work without a stick.

I was a bit sore and limpy on the way from tube to car on the way home. And I had to peel a snoozy suit off the handrail so I could get off the tube on the way in. But mostly successful, I think.

I've been intending for ages to write up another entry covering where I am in the great Knee Injury Saga. This is principally for my own future reference, and I don't recommend it for your reading entertainment.

( Day 108 today, apparently )

I am currently in Whitby with all the little gothses. Whitby, as you may know, is unsportingly full of hills, so I'm a little weary from walking around and also from standing about in the Spa. I'm having a nice peaceful Sunday afternoon sit-down, and figured I'd do a little bit of light catching up on here.
