well its better than ligament damage anyway.

 

There's some bright side.

 

 

Oh, forgot to mention that there is significant ligament damage on both sides....;):) It may be time to hang up the boots if the scar tissue is major. So, tell me about this bright side again...:D

It would take more than 6 women to break my ankle mate....:sly: That is worrying how a 38 year old man was beaten up by a bunch of flat dicks......:blink:

If you went there regularly (that area of town) , you would not be shocked if it was 2 women, never mind 6 :innocent:

He (you) probably insulted them, I would think :D

I come to Liverpool quite often and have had a few nights on the town there. I am still confused as to what a bunch of women were doing in the town centre??

 

There must have been some cleaning that needed doing somewhere surely??:D

Update..!!

 

Been back to the infirmary today to supposedly have a full cast put on my broken ankle.

 

Got there and they cut off the 3/4 cast that I have had on for the past 10 days. The swelling and the bruising is massive (pics later). They sent me for more x-rays as I am still in a lot of pain. They now don't think that it is actually broken......:blink:

 

WTF?? How can 3 people look at the original x-ray and get it wrong? The doctor today was great and very thorough.

 

They have sent me home in a tuba grip, with a prescription for some anti-inflamatories and a 2 week sicknote. They now reckon that it is just a really bad sprain and ligament damage that may need an op further down the line if it doesn't heal properly....:(

 

I just hope that a few weeks of rest and light pressure on it will fix it I am not so sure.....:blink: I hope to be walking and driving within 2 - 3 weeks..!!

so then paul... retiring then? :D

 

Good question..!!

 

I feel at the moment that I will need to find another hobby/fitness activity to stop me getting fat. Football is one of the things that I can do all day without getting bored....:(

 

Because of the way I play I am always inviting tackles and I have now lost a lot of confidence and wonder if I will be paranoid from here on in.

 

I have just e-mailed the pics from my blackberry to my laptop so I will post them up for those with a stronger stomach....:D

Paul, your game-play thumbs must be getting rather large by now I suppose? :D

 

Anymore info you can share with us on the TT6 or are you keeping that under you hat, or pasty, or whatever it is you keep things under? :)

 

The TT6 was the black 99 VVTi that Jurgen had for sale. Sods law that Jurgen went on holiday the week that I wanted to see it and then I broke my ankle the same week. I planned to go with Ian Ian on Wednesday but a deposit was put on it on Monday...:(

 

I had plenty of time to consider it in reality as Jurgen had given me a good price for it on relection. The jap pics did little for me initially but the UK pics changed my mind. I was just waiting to get some money back out of a building project that has gone Pete Tong..!!

 

There are so many things up in the air at the moment with money, job, car, health etc that I shouldn't really be looking at spending money on a car upgrade....:innocent: But temptation is a terrible thing....:D

Just nipped over to his site. It looks very nice indeed.

 

Well fingers crossed that the deposit paid is just that. Perhaps you could still swoop down and buy her if the other punter pulls out? :)

Obviously, yes mate..!!

 

I think it's going to Sweden as there was a guy who was mega keen on it according to Jurgen. I Pm'd him a week or two ago asking if he'd accept a cheque so he knows I was serious but I have taken too long to make up my mind as I could have got it 6 weeks ago. I still have my NA on my drive but I can't even prepare it for sale in my current state....:(

Looks painfull bud. I badly did my ligaments a good few years ago. Couldn't cast it (and they shouldn't so thats probably why they took yours off) so i was stuck with crutches for 6 weeks. It is easily the most painful thing i have ever felt in my life (I've been stabbed & shot). Doctor said its always better if the bone gives before the ligaments do, less complicated and less painful.

 

Really feel for you mate as i know what its like. I did a little bit of damage to the other ankle a couple of weeks ago. Very light ligament damage and bruising...

I'm starting to walk OK now though. Getting into the car was the worst. I'm tall so i have to twist my foot under the pedals when getting in.
