Hi All
I may be around on the forum a bit more for a while...............
I decided today to take all my coins which I have been collecting for a long time in a giant plastic coke bottle to Sainsburys to get them changed into money in their fancy counting machine.
I emptied them into a big bag and was dragging it down the stairs as I could not lift it when I fell down every last stair onto the base of my spine and my bum[:0][:0]
Sounds comical and I bet it looked funny...........the only upside is my mum took the coins for me and there was a total of £201.86[:D] Never thought it would be as much as this........am still in shock and a great deal of pain.
I went to the doctors as couldn't move and had a pain killing injection and need to stay off work for a while. The doc said it could last 2 weeks and will get worse before it gets better[:(]
Oh well I am £201.86 better off but can't move!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It does sound funny and I bet hilarious to watch, but I have never felt pain like it[:0]
As my job involves a lot of driving and I can't sit down without pain, I can see a while off work[:(]
It will be good to spend time on the forum again as have not done so properly for months now xx

I have been wanting to do a blog since I joined the forum over a year ago, but never got round to it and now think its a bit late one year into my iva. But I may think about it again MTL - think I will be fine spending my pennies (as long as its not classed as a windFALL!!!) oh well at least I can still laugh[:D]
Don't think we have been formally introduced wizzzard but I have read many of your hilarious jokes and laughed ot loud[:D]
I used to be on the forum all the time but now due to job being busier than ever I don't get as much time nowadays - but I am always having a read in the background if not posting[;)]
