Grounded

A short note to say I've broken my arm going over the handlebars of my bike, and had to have surgery to insert a metal plate, otherwise I'd have lost most of the use of my left hand, according to the consultant. So I'm grounded for a few weeks - no driving, no cycling, no gym.

I'm glad to be home and resting now, and one of the nice things waiting for me was a note to say that my Walking in Glencanisp poem is now up on Bolts of Silk.

Oh, that sounds sore, sorry to hear that.
I enjoyed the poem, especially how you manage to pack and evoke so much landscape in it.

Ouch! That sounds pretty nasty, Colin. Here's wishing you a swift recovery.

Get well soon Colin. Hope the hurt arm isn't the one you write with.

Nice meeting up with you at StAnza!
