Morning, (Cant say "good")! :(
After what had been a crappy week, I was quite glad to get home on Thusday. The week's bad run started on Sunday evening when my electric/oil heater started making strange noises and when I looked under the bench to have a look, it let loose with an almighty bang. Cue chair flying back (me still in it) at a very fast rate of knots. Boat bits in my hands gone with the fright, light fuse tripped out and stink of burnt electrics and other smells. (Not me).
Monday okay apart from usual car-park problems on M25 and the start of a cold. Tuesday walked into part of a CNC lathe and really hurt my side. Rest of week had a training course on a couple of new machines at work and cold became a stinker of a cold. Sneezing, runny nose, terrible headache made worse by having to concentrate on said course.
Thursday >:( Boy. The glad feeling soon went at about 7.30. Just had my dinner, went upstairs to change and for some reason, coming down, my brain did not register that there was another two stairs to go before landing floor. Landing floor being the correct term as I went flying down, straight onto my right arm and immediately heard a sound like a slap on skin. Agony for an hour or so but with a couple of Nurofen just a numb feeling. 2 in the morning and realized it was more then just a slapping sound I heard. Hospital visit today (Friday) 6.30a.m. and comfirmation that I am now the proud owner of a fracture of my right elbow
>:(
Need another xray on Tuesday before they can set it or put plaster or whatever they do. At least a week of work, and though I can type (slooooowly) am not sure if I can work on boats. If cant, then its' going to be a very long, slow time off work.
Oh well, must fly.
Ron.
