Hey all

On the weekend I broke my leg. I was up the ladder doing some painting on my house.

Anyway Im in cast for 6wks. Got this week off back next week I hope, desk job rather than fly.

Bad Luck Jim. You've inspired me to give up maintaing my house!

I broke my ankle a few years ago on my stag do learning to fly. From the balcony of a pub (The Gardies NZDN). Bones mend and heal. Turning up to your wedding in plaster I'm not allowed to forget though.

You'll be surprised what you can do with a cast on. What bone did you break?

A man died this morning after jumping off an apartment building near the edge of Princess Wharf in Auckland.

Police said the man had been drinking with friends on an 8th floor apartment, and talking about jumping into the harbour from the balcony.


At least you came off better than this guy!
