    Just got out of hospital!

    Basically, I tore the ligaments in right ankle playing football, 4 or 5 times in as many years, and for the last 12 months I've been getting quite a bit of pain because the wrong parts of the joint have been rubbing against each other causing some cartilage damage which would have got worse if I didn't get it fixed.

    So I went in for an operation today, where they removed any loose bits in the joint, then drilled holes (!) into the cartilage and bone to encourage healing and they also repaired the ligament at the same time.

    Got back home in a plaster cast and will be on crutches for the next 6 weeks or so, and will then probably have to wear a special 'boot' for a couple of months.

    I'm just glad I've got one of those wireless PC keyboards so I can use my PC from the comfort of my bed!

    I had my shoulder rebuit 2 years ago, had my arm strapped to my chest for 8 weeks! Couldnt even take it out of the strapping to shower! Boy did I drink a lot in that time! Funny though, I didnt make any friends down the pub, but that was probaly coz of the smell! lol!
