Angry Bored.....bored......bored.....bored!!

Off work sick at the moment (First time in 12 years!) following a slight mishap whilst doing some work related 'training' on Tuesday night. I've done my left ankle, GP thought I'd chipped a bone but the Hospital said its just a badly strained tendon.

I've only been off for 36 hours and I'm already going out of my head with boredom. Dr advised complete rest, loads of painkillers etc, etc. Therefore the furthest I've been since yesterday morning is the kitchen.

Apart from sitting in front of the computer/lay on the couch, I've done nothing. Can't even drive or wash the car

Any sympathy out there???

LOL - I didn't really beleive that the police DID any kind of "training" these days - none that requires moving anyway
Sorry, but all the police round here are too lazy to move outta their cars!

Can recommend the DS though - brain training is good fun, first time I did it I think my score was like 62 - talk about old before my time LMAO

All the best for a speedy recovery though (pardon the pun ) - how long you off work then on "rest"

the weakest excuse to get out of your fitness test I've ever heard.... admit it you were scared you weren't going to pass and you're cramming in some extra "revision"
