Broken Bones..

[bradburytiling]

Hi all,
Today i plastered a ceiling, i havent done one since i broke my ankle in october last year, and i have to say it was the first time my ankle actually felt ok since i broke it, i was a little off balance at time but i was working off steps. I havent been able to run on it untill march just gone.
I broke it land boarding doing silly jumps😳, my foot came outta of the binding and the board span one way and my body fell another, cue a nasty snap noise, and my foot danagling disconnected from my leg:yikes:...cue 8 weeks off work (that'll learn me for not having personal accident inscurance at that time:mad2🙂 2 weeks after i came out of my cast i went snowboarding for a week in the french alps, didnt make it feel much better.
Any one broken any bones and struggled with the recovery ?

think everyones got a tail to tell , many years ago i was working 14 hour days and seeing a new girlfriend about 20 miles away ,was working for a builder then fell a sleep had a head on with a lorry ,the driver said he saw me comeing down over this hill straight at him ,he tryed his best by driving up and in to the hedge to get away from me , the dotors said i got away with because i was a sleep ,being so relaxed , so very very lucky the only thing i did was cuts and pushed the ball of my foot about 2" up my leg , im ok in shoes but walking bare foot i limp , so anyone reading this i would say , only work a 12 hour day ,give the girlfriend a cpl more hours :lol:

Does that mean you've broken 5 noses or you've had yours broken 5 times?
