A few days ago I took my leave from the boards to concentrate on getting fit for the Sahara. Yesterday I injured my arm and we thought it was broken. Fortunately it's not, but the muscle is badly damaged and they've put me in a tubigrip and sling and I'm popping nurofen for the pain and inflammation. Can't drive or go to the gym for 3 weeks (possibly longer) so looks like I'll be walking everywhere now! lol May I come back to the boards for a while for some tea and sympathy please? Daisy

Daisy Tea and sympathy on its way, have put it on Becs thread but you can never have too much. Just think all that walking will get you in good sted for the trek

tubigrip or not you are coming to the desert babe!!!! Lots of sympathy tho xx

Daisy are you trying to get out of the trek only joking hope your arm is better soon all the walking will help you keep fit take care a little ((hug)) not to hard Howiexxx

you do indeed have my sympathies, I've broken my arm before (even though you haven't lol) and know how painful it is. Look on the brightside thouhg, could've been your leg and then you really would have been stuffed !! Hope it's better soon Paul xx

Ok I will bring the biscuits, the party is at Daisys, hope the arm is better soon XX

I am glad you had it looked at Daisy, one handed typing then? big hug xxhugxx

I knew you would not stay away too long:) Seriously, though, take good care of yourself and go a bit slower! XX BC

Poor you! Take care. Anna x

Thanks everyone and a special hello to Howie. Good to see you! Daisy

Oh Daisy it's so lovely to see you back so soon, I was hoping you would be back in double quick time, but not under these circumstances :-( ((((((Hugs)))))) and lots of sympathy from me to you. All that walking will do you good Daisy, they say it is the best exercise of all, so not too much of a worry not being able to drive really. You take good care of yourself and that arm. Love Pat x

Poor you! You know what they say - 'be careful what you wish for' - you wanted more time to concentrate on getting fit for the trek - a WALKING trek - so someone listened! Mega Mags Hug and hope you are soon fit. BB is right - get yourself some ultrasound - it works! There's probably a sports physio at the gym can sort it out for you. We'll have a whip round..Down Girl!! - I meant a collection to pay for it LOL.....Oh! and the taxi to get there! Love Mags xxx

Poor Daisy, pot of tea and lots of sympathy waiting for you. Mend quickly Deb

awww hugs Daisy xx

Daisy! What did you want to go and do that for? You've been overdoing it, haven't you? You see, you need to sit at your PC for a while each day - it has therapeutic and restorative properties, and it stops you getting injured. Good to see you back, even if for the wrong reasons. Diana, You'd better hire an extra camel, just in case she needs a lift. CB >|< XX
