Walk-in, limp out, centre

Aarrgghh, what a waste of time that was.  Went to the walk-in centre, waited 40 minutes, just to be told by the 15 year old nurse that they couldn’t do anything and I’d have to go to Barts’ minor injury clinic.  She did call her colleague for a second opinion and they stared at my knee for a while and said I might need crutches – eek!  The nurse also said I was very brave for not taking any painkillers.  “Brave”?  Am I five years old?!  I should have asked for a lollipop.

Ah well, I’ll go to Barts after work tomorrow then, that’ll be fun.

My little vegetable patch is growing, hurrah  – the radishes, spring onions and spinach have all started growing and more importantly, so have the sunflowers, woo!  My nice plant has died though, or mostly dead anyway so that was a waste of £7.99 and the sleeping flowers are looking a bit dead too, but I just gave them some water so maybe they’ll perk up a bit.  The purple ones are ok though.

If anything’s still alive by Saturday, I’ll post some pics.

  • Sounds nasty about the leg – Hope it goes ok today :-/

  • Thanks, I’ll be brave 😉

  • Wine o’clock… the best time of the day 🙂

    Glad that they’ve given you a reason for your leg – Rest it up, and take it slow when you start back running. Did they give you any advice on building your muscle up on the bad leg?

    Any way – love the look on the new site – enjoy the hot weather 🙂

  • No, she just said I need to start using it again properly when it’s better but rest for the time being although I don’t think I’ll be doing much resting today, want to work on the garden a bit, will rest tomorrow 🙂

Please leave me a comment - I love comments!
