    That fall must have really shaken you up, hope that you are resting now with your ice pack. That naughty tumble dryer, hope you gave it a good telling off. I know how it feels, I decided to fall down the stairs a while back and had a beauty up my arm and leg. So rest yourself.

    Sally, I'm sending up really big ((((((Hugs))))))
    it is horrible when you fall over and even worse when it is you leg that gives way.
    my sister had a fall and it really knocked her confidence.

    I hope you take it easy for a while.

    Oh, sounds nasty! Yes, tumbles do hurt especially when you have sore joints, as well. You get lots of rest and I hope you soon feel better. Lots of love Sue xxxx((()))

    Hi sally

    The fall wil have really shook you up. I have fallen a couple of times and it isn't very nice.

    I hope the bruises are not too bad today and that you are not in too much pain.

    Take care
