me.
after borrowing nephew's stunt scooter to use (as i was limping with swollen leg caused by 2 insect bites). forgot that these things don't work like an mbt, so it's not a good idea to whizz down a tarmac path downhill at speed and make a sharp right hand turn.
the stunt peg dug unto the ground and my face and elbow were used as a brake. ouch.
no biking for me now for the next few months. have broken right arm and there won't be an entry this year for any beauty contests 🙁 😳
Ooops get better soon
Sorry to hear that BH, heal fast
However - PICS !!!!!!
The pics are not pleasant. 🙁 I saw the post of facebook Bunnyhop. Hope you're feeling a bit better now.
ouch!!!!
You'll be back before you know it Mrs !!! I'll look forward to riding with you again in fiture. Only a phone call away when you're ready for company....
And FWIW.... You're beautiful! (Even if a little bruised...) 😉
I bet the cast is pink 🙄
Get well soon! 🙂
surgical neck of he humerus - so no cast.
thanks everyone 🙂
Still, I imagine the nephew was impressed... 😀
Get well soon.
Bummer, sounds really sore, sending a hug, get well soon.
he certainly rides his child's mtb better than i ride his scooter.
poor nbt is run off his feet cooking, cleaning, gardening, shopping and working. he draws the line at wearing my floral pinny.
lordy! Get well soon.
This is a bad time to remind me I forgot to send a house warming invite.
So here it is.
Come to our new house on the 31st for a party. Bring your husband and your broken arm.
Ouch, breaking the humerus is no laughing matter I can tell you. No cast, doubly so. Definitely the most painful thing I've ever had the misfortune to inflict on myself.
Did the nephew manage to capture it on video? 😉
Heal soon, heal well.
Ouch! GWS
Sounds painful, get well soon.
Blimey, GWS and I'm sure any pics of nbt in "domestic goddess" mode would be appreciated.
(as i was limping with swollen leg caused by 2 insect bites)
To be fair, it sounds like you had a pretty serious injury before you got on the scooter... 😉
Commiserations, anyway, hope it mends quickly
Ouch! Hope you heal soon. Take it easy for a while eh?
Owwwwww! Sorry to hear that, BH. Reading your post, I was instinctively tensing up and getting that sort of queasy feeling you get when it's all going tits-up, and you know it's going to hurt.
Mend soon, and with no long-term consequences.
Of which I have personal experience. 🙁
Oh dear....
Sound painful.
Spectacular, but painful.
Healing vibes from Sue & I.
Yes, I saw the pictures - very impressive!
Must be catching - my collarbone in May, your elbow and just the other night richpips broke his wrist.
I'm such a trendsetter! 😉
Get well soon, meanwhile make the most of bossing Jules around the house!
Oh and samuri, you forgot to send an invite to me too!
You are of course correct. And you're welcome to come.
I've said it before (as has roger):he draws the line at wearing my floral pinny.
PICS !!!!
awww, thanks everyone.
oh and healing vibes to richpips and everyone else who's allowed to moan this weekend.

No problem taking your bra off 😈
Gws
😳
Nice pants 🙂
I genuinely haven't figured out what's going on in that picture yet.
EDIT: Got it. That's your back, not a leg!
Looks pretty crappy; best wishes.
yes, its my right arm, i'm hunched over in pain.
OUCH... that looks sore... GWS
Oh BH, I saw the photos in the pub the other day, get well soon!
They've put the pictures up in the pub?!
Sorry to hear of your injury Jane - hope it heals quickly and doesn't get you too down.
ouch!
How is it healing?
mcmoonter - slowly but shirley, also got low pain threshold.
i am a very poor patient, who has a thousand things to do (don't all women) and being self employed isn't good. doc said because i'm a manual worker it's going to be about another 8 weeks before i can return to the workroom.
missing all the dry trails too. oh well, lesson learned to stay off nephew's toys and stick to being a big kid on my own two wheeled play things 🙂
Oh bad luck, looks a bad one. Get well soon.
doc said because i'm a manual worker it's going to be about another 8 weeks before i can return to the workroom.
😯
I'd be climbing the walls if someone said that to me. Fingers crossed it gets better sooner.
There is far too much sympathy around here....
Hahahahahahahahahahahaaha.
I'm only laughing because for once it isn't me!
Oooooooooooo - that looks nasty! Hope you heal quickly dear!
At least its a credible injury though, being, like TOTALLY rad and sick on your stunt scooter, and all that 😉
binners - you usually break something at least once a year, so someone else had to have a turn.
am i the only numpty then?
