Well you have sympathy from me.

That's a real shame. Hope it heals quickly and you'll be able to enjoy the good spring snow in March and April.

No-ones asked how you did it yet. I'm guessing not on your planks.

At least you're young enough that it'll heal fast and properly.

You're active: I'd lay money you'll beat their "standard" estimate by at least 2-3 weeks, especially if you rest carefully now and then hit the physio as soon as cleared to do so. Talk to hospital & GP about getting it organised as soon as poss..

I spent the whole of the summer on my kids trampoline in the garden, hoping to break my ankle.


I just fancied 6 weeks off work.

The cast is off in 4 to 6 weeks but I dunno what happens after that.

Find out how you go about ensuring you have your physiotherapist booked in advance for the week that you get the cast off. The NHS isn't always very good at doing joined up services, sometimes needs a wee push to make sure you get the right things at the right time.
With physio, you'll be sorted pretty quickly.
