morning all............it's 2.30 a.m. Qld. time.
Been sitting here waiting for the ambulance..good thing it's not an emergency...been here for over an hour....think I've broken a rib.
And no richo....didn't climb the ladder. It's amazing being awake at this time...stupid next doors rooster keeps crowing.
It's those ruddy shiny tiles again...dog did a puddle and I didn't see it and over I went again....almost a week ago. Anyway they'll prob. be here soon. It is Saturday night after all.

Oh Gil π dear me... I do hope you haven't broken a rib, there isn't a lot they can do other than strap it firmly. Pain killers and rest ...
I've had a couple of falls lately, but thankfully only bruised. I took a great tumble in the garden and flattened a lot of poppy plants then again climbing through next door's temporary fence to deal with my electric fence that they won't do any maintenance on.. it would help if they would just cut their grass down on that side, but then, they do nothing so I am henny penny and just do it myself.
More bruises :^O
Happy gs-ing Richo π

Gil. Hope that you are feeling better. Can you have the surface of those tiles scratched or ground in any way for a better grip?

home now....xrays etc. fell last Tuesday on those damned tiles..yes Jean, there is a process where they 'etch' the tiles to give them more grip....Will try and have it done in the NYear. I should have been taking panadol every 4 hours instead of "cracking hardy" and breathing shallow to relieve the pain...which left me in danger of a collapsed lung due to lack of full inflation. So will be from now on. They're not sure whether I cracked a rib, but think there's no damage to my lung. Can do without this crap.

was a great joy lying there in hospital,, listening to the 3 other occupants in my ward barking like seals and coughing till they were given a mask of ventolin...gasping for breath.....I suspect they might have been smokers at one stage:-(

Gill my dear... just take it easy and yes, you do have to keep your lungs clear with deep breaths even when it hurts.
The hurts won't do your ribs any harm it's just bluddy painful.
Glad you're home again and if the pain gets too bad then go on to Panadeine... one every 5 hours should hold it, but be aware of constipation.
I take them for my back as I can't move easily without them.
Go easy friend, don't like to think of you doing yourself damage. ;-( xxx

Just taken my 6 pm panadol..seems to be controlling the pain,so good inhale and exhale. Bluddy hell.don't like it much.
However as our fearless leader says....Upwards and onwards.
