Morning. Given the wrist a couple of days and the swelling and pain have gone down a bit but still not right and not able to grip much. I think I better head in to PRI this morning and get it checked out.

Hope everyone else is ok. Hope you get your wife settled in again at home Dave. I’ll try and catch up on everything later.

Changed my mind about going to hospital. Just out of the bath and there's definitely a bit more movement today. I've sent away for a wrist support. Hope I'm doing the right thing but I have a bit of a hospital phobia at the best of times!

:hello: good morning folks, been awake since five, bed people in today, I wonder what time they'll arrive? Parking might be fun, nothing else planned apart from a bit of wallpaper repair, moving furniture revealed a strip that has started to lift off the wall, I've got a strip on the chimney breast where an edge won't stay down, doesn't matter what I do with it it always lifts back up.

Barnet,
Good morning all fellow retirees.

Groundhog day again. :ohmy:

It's dark outside and is forecast to be cloudy all day.

Did all the domestics yesterday and made 6 more pots of marmalade.

Dog walking, and maybe a bimble out on the bike later.

@Mo1959 I went over on the ice last Sunday and hurt my wrist, although I now have full movement it still aches a little. Wrists take a while when they have taken a bang. Good to hear you're on the mend.

Stay safe everyone :cuppa:

Morning all :hello:

@Mo1959 during my racing career I had to visit A&E numerous times (broken foot x 2, broken ribs x 3, collar bone, kneecap, wrists x 3) The docs there told me that if you can't firmly grip a broom handle, then you've most likely got a fracture.
Get yerself checked out.

Not scare mongering but MrsD hurt her wrist a few years ago after a 'slight' fall.
Went to hosi and ended up getting it pinned.
IMO you can't afford to take a chance with it.
