    Thank you Tea I'll live plenty antibiotics and things and time to heal it'll be fine

    Weather has been so nice. We haven't been anywhere but the smalls played in the back garden. I haven't done very much other than the usual.

    Hope you've had a good day

    Get well soon hun - sounds painful and that's without all the inconvenience these things seem to cause.

    Ooh, that sounds nasty WB. Playing in the garden sounds good to me. We sailed home today but the traffic was queuing from Chorley going the other way :eek: Looking forward to spending some time in my garden as well this weekend. xx

    I'm always burning myself on the iron and oven, those burns are pretty painful so a burn that involves a visit to A&E must be extremely sore. Hope it heals quickly. Look after yourself and enjoy the lovely weather this weekend xx

    Evening.

    Thanks all for stopping in and leaving replies. I haven't really been online as my internet is going to run out :o

    Been and had my dressings changed and the smalls have played outside. Haven't got half as much done as I wanted to but I'll catch up eventually. Dosed up on painkillers and the antibiotics make me feel awful.

    Hope you've all had a lovely Easter

    Spent the last change in the bank on some juice
