Not much to report in the Patman household except that MrsP has fallen over and brocken her wrist. Now, baring in mind she is tee-total, I can now say 'MRSP IS PLASTERED'. Sorry, but I had to do it.Never Knowingly Understood.

Seriously though, I'm sorry to hear about MrsP's accident. Sending all the best for her recovery:beer:.
I broke my wrist a few years ago and although I was perfectly capable of doing my job with the cast on (it was my left wrist and I'm right handed) I had problems driving. It was a long commute to work too with no public transport. The Doc kept stressing that it would nullify my car insurance if I had an accident as wearing a plaster cast which came part way over the fingers meant I was considered as not in full control of the vehicle:eek:. I'm afraid I was very naughty:o and drove anyway ( I seemed totally in control but it was very painful) as I had a very demanding organizing/admin job then and I knew no-one else could cover for me.0 -

I cannot believe that this thread has been running for over 2 years. What a journey it has been for all of us on here so far.
Many ups (and downs), some have reached their target, whilst others have been glad of their EF when real emergencies have cropped-up.
Anyway, MrsP's wrist is heal;ing well and she now has a new pink cast on.
No money added to my EF this week as I want to make sure that I cover all my monthly bills.Never Knowingly Understood.
