Not just this second obviously but about 30mins ago.  Heading to A&E in a little whilst once my wife has returned from work and given me an ear full not doubt.

Silly mistake, completely my own fault.  Cleaned above a pitched roof with the pole on a first clean (bloody filthy!) got my ladder out to check 1 pane as it hadn't come up the best.  Slipped off a rung on the ladder......oops.  Landed with style though, did a parkour sort of roll out but only after crunching my ankle into bits!!!!  Continued cleaning the ground floor (on 1 leg), collected payment and she even signed up for a monthly regular clean.  she asked if i was feeling ok as i looked a little pale lol.

Dragged myself back to the van and drove home in the only gear i could find.

got to laugh sometimes but my god my ankle hurts and not sure how to proceed with work?

ill keep you posted,

Jon

I wouldn't think you'd have a leg to stand on.

That's a bummer sorry to hear that bud....Hope you're not off work too long.

On a positive note you have a new regular customer...well done 

[SeanK]

Yes there's nothing like a nagging wife to dull the pain of a broken ankle , hope it turns out all right for you.

Hopefully you've just dislocated it.  It will still need a lot of rest though but hopefully not for too long. I had three very good friends who divided my work between them at kept it all going for six months when I broke mine. On a second occasion when I had to have surgery on the same ankle they did it again for about a year. I was very grateful for their help.

It'll be just a strain
