Ok bought the fridge for my small goods and needed a good clean inside so got into it. Was finishing the bottom of the door and lent a bit to far forward. Next second I am of balance and head first into the concrete pillar of the garage sent flying to my right into the driveway on my right arm and knee then over to the left.

Luck I did not get knocked out. Couple of minute to get myself sorted out and tried to ring Molly but she was asleep. Called the ambulance but not sure how long to come, local parcel postie pulled up after 10 minute and stayed with me and managed to wake Molly. He was good and would not leave until the ambulance arrived. Always considered him the-best of the lot.

Arrived at Flinders emergency and have had xrays and scans, just waiting for the doctors to decide if they will keep me in overnight or let me go home.

Guess tomorrow is another day cheers Robert.

Derek got home about 10:30pm all scans and x rays ok they gave me the choice of staying so they could check in the morning or going home. Comfortable bedxand warm wife won the day. I had to endure a lecture from her trulely first but it is the daughter that is scaring me. O well we will see what happens.

More rain expexted for the rest of the week. Cheers Robert

As we all get older falls are increasingly more common, hope you are OK Robert.
 

When I die I hope my missus doesn't sell my camp ovens  for what I told her I paid for them. pd
