    That sounds a bad one, beanie.  Do you have any protocol for checking if you've got internal bruising or even a concussion?

    Oh no. Hope you’re ok. 
    Just wondering if you have any means of getting hold of somebody easily should you need it. A family member of mine has either a google thing or Alexa that will phone us (or whoever he tells it to) with his voice command in an emergency.
