And why was I there? I was ambulanced 60 miles to Morriston after
tripping in my greenhouse, falling into and demolishing 3 panes of
glass with my left hand and falling into the shards.
I almost sectioned a large slice of my left hand and somehow took
another entry wound to my right shoulder, with sundry superficials of
a cosmetic nature.


Ouch!

I was lucky. Jobs done under local anaesthetic, cleaned out and
stitched up, no tendon damage.


Good.

On antibiotics, painkillers and whisky now.


Get well soon and enjoy the medicinal whisky.


See, this is why I prefer to do my gardening from the safety of the
shed. Whilst wifey does the mowing, pottering and secateurs stuff, the
most I get involved with is a little watering, dibbling in my frog pond,
and waving a bat detector about in the the twilight. I am required to
trim the bush [1] once a back end, but I regard that as revenge rather
than actual gardening

[1] NO! I said No!
