Good idea! I'll start with such classics as: "Don't fall off" "Fall gently" & "Stay on the black stuff". I'm sure that'll help!

Thanks for the kind words all.

It just isnt possible to say how crap that kind of news is.
I'm starting to feel so very lucky that my 4 lots of shoulder surgery and 2 lots of back surgery seem to have left me with so few problems. (Well for an old git anyway)
I cannot describe how scared I was that something would go wrong.
I just wish there was something I could do, but the best I can offer is a ride on my classic racers when your collarbone is healed.
And it *will* heal, its just that you are going to need some intensive treatment to make it happen, and they always have to try the slow approach before the intensive approach.
