yes, not too bad actually, I don't know what all the fuss is about, I was back to work at 6am Sunday morning, Although I can't carry the papers in yet, I've had to get the kids up early to carry stuff for me, they've been a great help.

I went to the hospital this morning to the fracture clinic and they tell me that It will take 6 to 8 weeks before I can take my sling off? and I shouldn't go back to work yet and should pretty much stay in bed? I said I have to go to work to pay the mortgage. *****!

I have an appointment for 6 weeks time for another x-ray, by which time they should be able to see early signs of healing ( I didn't tell him I'd have another race before then).

All in all I thinks they are a bit pessimistic and I have chosen to ignor all their advice, I might go back for another x ray, but why, in 6 week time if it isn't quite right it will be too late to do anything about it anyway surely?

The bike don't look toooooo bad, but I can't use a spanner yet so it'll have to wait a bit longer.

on reflection the most disappointing thing is loosing the points for a good finnish at Mallory. - oh ********!
