My left foot

Something that I promise you'll never have to see again but then I won't be seeing all of it for the next month or two.

 

Off to hospital this morning for an operation to try to re-fasten and repair a loose tendon in my ankle. All being well I'll be back home later in the day but I thought it best to blip now (at 5.30am!) rather than risk doing it while suffering the after effects of anaesthesia - the climb up the 54 steps to the flat may prove quite a challenge as well!

 

I struck me that this time last year I had one of the very best sandal tans known to man and look at me now, reverting to pasty whiteness! The only thing that hasn't gone from last year is the last trace of the nasty mark on my big toe nail where a pair of shoes damn near crippled me in July - sometimes it's the painful things that linger on to remind us!
