Injured (time for me to read and learn)

[Bubinga]

Looks like I will be just watching you fellow woodworkers make stuff for awhile. Thursday. I slipped on the ice at work while doing my walkaround inspection of a China Air 747, and broke my leg in two places. I have a cast from my crotch to my big toe. I always wished for some paid time off, but this isn't what I really needed

Sorry to hear of your misfortune mate.

How about getting yourself strapped to your bench ?

That way you get to keep your leg straight and you can do some WW as well

Seriously, get well soon

Ah Rick, you say you slipped, but we all know that you kicked that Jumbo's wheel a little too hard.

At least while in plaster, you've got an excuse to watch all the sport you want. And you can get the beer home delivered ... if you ask the missus nicely. Get the nurses to add a stubbie holder to your cast, right next to the remote holder. And remember, Nursus Molestus.

Cheers

The only way you'd get ice on the tarmac anywhere round here would if you spilled your drink... are you telling us the whole story here??

Sorry to hear of your misfortune Rick. Hope you will getter better soon.

But surely this isn't going to stop your time in the workshop? Bit awkward to move around but your hands are okay ain't they?

Hmm, he's locked alone in the shed. Can't stand up or move around too well. Can't reach up onto the benches or anything else because they were all designed to be worked at by standing up. What were you suggesting he do with his hands Peter? :eek:

Richard

[Sturdee]

Whatever.

Maybe some finishing on some projects or sharpening tools ? Always something to do in a shop.

A cast from ankle to crotch will also affect other pleasurable activities..... (ahem....)
