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 ********!

Matt,
Good to see you in good spirit and on the way to recovery, I thought it was very kind of you and Neil to bin it and let me win a race,very generous of you both I thought
I only caught a glimpse of you disappearing out of site to my left as we went into Gerrards, didn't even know Neil had went down also till we got back to the line.
For the 2nd start I did what felt like a massive wheelie off the line, still had the wheel in the air when I changed to 2nd gear, but after gathering myself I got to the front and stayed there which was good. (Hoped for some pictures of the stunt show on the line, but not seen any yet!!!)
I have broken my collar bone twice and dislocated 3 times, and only once was it really painfull and stopped me using it, so to me it seems a strange injury to know how long it takes to heal. But fronmt eh X-ray yours looks worse than any I have had as they have been single breaks.
Hope you get well soon and we see you out at Anglesey, if not you should hopefully make Snetterton, but I won't be there as I am working.
