Armer’s finger turned out to be fractured across the actual top joint. So will be strapped for a month and be about 6 weeks till ok.

The cut is mending well & bruising largely gone … except the nail, which is very blue and will fall off sooner or later.

That said, it’s pretty much pain free, just a tad of a nuisance. Thank you muchly for asking.

Meanwhile, knock 'em flat Joe.

Eeek! Ouch.

Very glad that you seem to be mending well, though. And your typing appears to have improved a touch.

Owowow stoppit.
Is the Surprising Mrs still doing lawn-fettling and such?

She is. She planted out some very surprised veg today. If they take off we will be able to export courgettes and beans in a few weeks. Oh, & the tomatoes are going to be very numerous indeed.

The ‘Companion Strapping’ helps,but does mean that you have 2 fingers out of action…

The Champagne is chilling for when Joe is finished, but I do think that we ought tocheck the quality…

Ahem

There are fresh ripe peaches too .‘My’ stall on the market were selling them orff at 6 for £1 & gave me the last 10 for £1, so a bargain

Not a patch on the Italian ones though…

… & the finger bandage came orff this morning. So currently wandering around without any civer for the first time in 12 days. The nurse at work will dress it later.

It’s odd to be uncovered & very conscious of it. I’m instinctively doing a ‘pinky finger’ with it to keep it away from bumps.

All this for a bumped finger tip !!

You’d better have an emergency wash station to keep it clean.
