Well still no pens after my latest setback.
Going to bed last Friday and reached out to push open the door , found what I thought was the door and took a step forward only to find it was the frame round the door. Fell from to of the stairs to the bottom also Going through a metal child gate as well and landed on a tiled floor. The ambulance arrived about an hour later. Had to keep me awake as I was semi conscious. Got discharged about 7am lots of bruises on my arms and back. Doctor said I was very lucky as a patient earlier had broken his leg and arm. Couldn't figure out with so much bruises that I hadn't broke anything..
Still very sore and black and blue.....

Thanks Guys for all the best wishes. Bruises started fading just a few of the darker still showing. Cuts healing and the black eye is also fading away.
Hopefully will get back to turning shortly....
