Wrist - fell of bike when being a bit stupid at age 12ish broke a knuckle punching a wall when very drunk at about 17/18 Am sure I broke a bone in my foot when I dropped something VERY heavy on it a few years ago, hospital didn't do an xray though.

I broke my left ankle. Was doing a gymnastics element aged 17 and tried to do a somersault off the side of my foot. My ankle went CRACK! and I landed on my head. X ray showed a centimetre gap across my ankle which did not fully heal. Still have a few millimetres gap. Was in plaster for 2 months. And it still aches 8 years later. Natalia x

No. The only person in my immediate family who's broken anything is my eldest son - he broke his collarbone NOT playing rugby, but in some silly horseplay at his primary school when he managed to get his heaviest friend to fall on top of him. My father, now dead, broke his arm using a car starting handle (remember them?) My mum had a bad hand at the time, so because I was too small to use a bread knife we had to eat pre-sliced bread for a while. nell

I've broken my big toe 3 times (once when my mum drove over my foot!). Hubby's broken his fingers a few times. Eldest daughter - fractured skull at 8 weeks old. Daddy dropped her! Funny now, but in all honesty the most traumatic time of my whole life as we nearly lost her. She also broke her ankle playing netball last year and had to have a major operation on it. Since when of course she's been taking it easy, sky diving, abseiling, white water rafting etc! lol Son - broke collar bone playing 'bundle' on the school field. Guess who was at the bottom of the bundle? He refused to go to the hospital saying it was nothing and when we eventually got him there it was broken in 2 places. He had a Spanish GCSE written exam the next morning too! Youngest daughter - broke wrist bouncing on the sitting room cushions being Tigger aged 3. I only realised it was broken when she fainted as I was rubbing it better. They know us very well in A&E!! Daisy

Number one child snapped his femur at the hip after being run over. Hence my complete intolerance of idiots who finding speeding macho.

Radius and ulna broken as a result of a fall when iceskating. The sad thing is I had my daughter with me and I had taken her round and round, picking her up or catching her before she went down and hadn't fallen once. I wanted to call it a day because I could feel the blisters forming but daughter begged for just one more lap and then .....CRACKKKK. And 10yr old daughter saying 'Get up, mother. You're showing us up'. There's nowt like sympathy, and that was nowt like sympathy. Boo Hoo, Beth :)

Thankfully I have never broken anything (touch wood), had a close call when I was about 8 - I fell off a horse and it ran back over me and stood on my leg! A friend of mine broke his Heal about a year ago - was flying a huge kite and did a bit of a Mary Poppins on a stepped bank, as he came back down he landed on his heal - ouch! Kaye x
