Anyway, my dear darling wife, (all 5ft and 8 stone of her) has been out in the Jaguar this morning to Asda and come home to her loving husband with a nice bottle of Laphroaig for her poor old husband, “just to try to ease the pain a bit my love”
P.S. that’s a very handsome drinks cabinet Larry, a man can be truly proud of something like that
I’ve seen a consultant orthopaedic surgeon (late Tuesday), Verdict…no surgery, nothing can be achieved due to the location of the fractures, no plaster cast, “we can’t put a pot on a shoulder”, so it will have to be left to heal itself, it will take 8 to 10 weeks and it WILL be painful.
hiya,
Not wishing to be a Jonah, but I did my left shoulder nearly 20 years ago same diagnosis
it’ll heal itself painkillers and later physio, heal it did but in the Winter months it aches
like nobody’s business and only tablets and heat gives relief I’ve got an appointment for
next Tuesday to see a doc and hope he can prescribe a stronger painkiller, paracetemol
is as much use as a glass eye taking about half an hour to kick in and the relief lasting
only about the same amount of time, It’s OK when the sun shines, I’m just wondering if
it would be possible for the doctor to prescribe me a villa in a sunnier climate for during
the Winter months on the NHS of course, well it would save money on tablets.

A couple of years ago my daughter did her shoulder when her large dog took off after a cat. Luckily (or not?) her father was staying with her at the time and was able to offer some assistance with calling ambulance, looking after children, etc. She passed out three times with the pain before they got her loaded into th’ambulance and she spent weeks with a sling around her neck waiting for it to heal. She’s not been 100% since and the medics told her not to be surprised if it lets her down again as the joint will be permanently weakened. She, too gets a lot of pain in the winter and has been told that she will be susceptible to arthritis in the joint in the future.
Shoulders must be the ‘In Fracture’ at present Brian, in the ward where my missus is there have been three women with broken shoulders during the past week. They only keep them in for a couple of days, with their arms hoisted up in the air on a gantry, and then send them home to let Hubby attend to their every need!! So at least you are ‘in fashion’ with your ailment!
I just take the paracetemol with codeine as well as a few others mind & have injections in the back to help in fact just out on tues after another round

hiya,
Ang if you want your back rubbed just give me a ring but don’t let Old Norm
know or I’ll get crushed in the rush, PS I’ve got a touch like a midwife.

i was round at a garage getting a little job done on the car yesterday and there was a brand new globetrotter being prepared in one of the bays . idly looking round and nattering to the driver and opened the door to look inside , my head was level with the cab floor with 4 bloody great steps to climb to get in . why do they need to make them that high nowadays ? needless to say , i still don’t know what it looks like inside .

I know what you mean Dave. A neighbours lad drives for Seafield off of Ashbourne airfield and I ran him to work last year as his car was on test, he drives a MAN and he let me sit in it while he did his daily checks (whatever they are, a quarter of an hour just sitting there and he could have been half way to Derby in that time ) and I nearly had vertigo! No gear lever of course, just a switch, but it was certainly smart inside with plenty of room. I suppose the Renault Magnum started the craze off but I prefer something a little closer to the ground myself!
clever things horses . i lived with my grandparents at the end of the war , and every saturday night grandad would hitch up the pony and trap and go to the pub ( 3 miles away ) . at chucking out time he would be absolutely legless , so the landlord loaded him into the trap and the pony knew to take him home . grandma would dump him on the hearthrug , put the pony away and go to bed . one saturday he got fighting drunk and grandma had had enough , she rolled him up in the rug and set about him with the carpet beater . he quietened down a bit after that , but he never lived it down . grandma was a big woman.ps , tell harry to guard his computer , if the wife sees this it could give her ideas

hiya,
Clever thinking “Riggers” I’ll change my password just in case she tries out a bit
of sleuthing, I’m wed to a woman who’s a bit o the hefty side too, don’t want to
give her any ammunition she might put a limit on my malt intake as well.
