Went to the hospital and had the plaster removed. My broken leg has healed well, so the doctor says. Found it a bit painful walking as the ankle muscles are quite weak.

Cold Spell
What a change in the weather!!! Really cold today, after the record hot weather of the previous days it was time for the central heating to burst into life. At least the rain kept away. (Though with the fires I expect we could do with a bit of rain very soon).
Fish Supper at the Plough and Anchor
You might be forgiven if you thought I was advertising the P&A, but they do excellent food and as they are near at hand it really saves on the driving. Anyway they had a special Fish evening on Friday which Rosemary and I attended.
For Starters Rosemary had Smoked mackerel, horseradish and egg parsley tian, while I had Deep fried Cromer crab and red pimento soufflé.
Mains were Natural smoked Haddock and Salmon set on a lemon grass skewer with pilau rice and sweet and sour sauce, while I had Pan fried Sea Bass on a bed of Celery mashed Potatoes with Tomato Ragout. All very excellent including the desserts.
The day was very warm although there was a strong breeze blowing.
Aylesbury Bus Services
Thursday was the third day I tried and failed to catch the bus from work home. No wonder no one travels by bus. The first day the Red Rose bus went sailing past me at the bus stop. The second day was my fault, I did not understand the bus route and waited at the wrong place. The third day I waited for the bus for ages, well past the bus leaving time (15 minutes) and as I was walking back down the road the bus passed by. Thats it never again.
I mowed the grass
Sunday the sun shone, and it was very warm in the conservatory. Outside not so warm, but by the end of the day I was outside in a tee shirt. I managed to mow the outside of the field on the ride on mower despite the hurt leg. Most of the foot work on the mower has to be done with the right leg. (Not the broken leg). I was able to do quite a bit of walking without crutches on Sunday, and going up and downstairs is alot easier now I can put weight on the leg.
