    Have fallen down out side the shed and have broken my ankle in three places . I am in hospital awaiting surgery to have it pinned and then set and off of the leg for 8 to 10 weeks.

    Another 4 weeks min till I can get out to the shed to work. I see the specialist and their physio Wednesday. Than another month after that to see if they are going to operate again on my ankle. No driving either because of the medications I have to take. I am starting to hate TV as I have to have my foot up to reduce pressure on the ankle. Brains trying to work out things I want to try when I get in the workshop.

    I hope that your ankle heals well. Do everything they say so that it heals properly.
