Oh no Jays, that is not only painful but incredibly bad luck! That's two people I know with broken ankles...who will be next...?

Tim, husband of Chris, one of Caroline's friends, did exactly the same but made a bigger mess: 3 hours surgery to pin the ankle back together... He spent Christmas in hospital, they let him out yesterday. He is in a wheelchair. Chris is an ex nure so no sympathy at all!

PS: Hope the helicopter ride was at least a small compensation!
