Knee jerk... Action!

My left knee has been on the telly!
Six years ago, while playing footie, Portofino against Krimo's, I slipped and hurt my knee. I had to skip the gym for a few months. It niggled me on and off but got worse over the last few months, especially after a busy shift at the restaurants.

This Thursday morning my knee got its first acting role in a dramatic arthroscopy. It all went well and I am now resting, twirling my thumbs, watching The X-factor, Eurovision Dance Contest, and getting totally bored out of my brains! I have tried drawing, practising on my guitar, drinking tea till it seeps out of my ears...
I am a very impatient patient!
I know that the restaurants are all very busy despite this awful wet and cold weather. I know that because my mobile is right next to me.
The doctor suggested a two-week break to make sure my knee heels properly. No driving for two weeks! That alone is going to drive me crackers!

Well You know I know all about knees don't you? You do as the doctor says and rest up otherwise you may end up having a knee replacement like me!

I have been sick with the flu for a 8 days and I am out of my mind as well so I totally feel you Krimo! But do be careful and take it easy so that you can walk again soon :)

I hope not, Akela. I will look after this one for now...

I can walk, Val, but I can't drive. I need to catch up with my paperwork... So I'll just have to be chauffeured.

Reste tranquille. Le médecin a dit pas de conduite. Donc pas de conduite ! Il faut obéir à son médecin, sinon je dirais au Dr Nassim. Compris ! Allez, profite de cette convalescence.

Au fait, as-tu revu mon blog ? Il y a plusieurs chansons de Tahar Fergani : Ya dalma, Nedjma et une autre.
