Ankles

Some years ago, I broke my ankle.

Leave it to me - this was no simple break: not like some cracked ankle bone or anything: I broke my foot off my leg. Yes, just dangling about unattached to any bone matter.

It was miraculously re-attached with metal stripping and a number of screws. I was back in action (if anyone can ever call me "in action") before long.

I was supposed to go back in for voluntary surgery to have the screws removed once things had healed. Who were they kidding? Voluntary surgery? Never happened.

My only disappointment is I don't set off the detecters at the airport.
