A sign?

I updated the blog last Sunday but one thing I didn't mention is that I was doing it on the couch with my foot in the air wrapped in ice! I was playing rugby last weekend and while jumping in the lineout (for AFL people that's where someone throws it in from the side and people get lifted in the air to try and get the ball - I get lifted) I came down and someones foot was under my heel when I landed. Someone heard a crack and I felt a lot of pain and the first thought that came in to my head was 'oh shit I'm going to be in plaster at the wedding...'

I spent Sunday and Monday on crutches and after my foot swelled to the size of an ugh boot at work, I thought it might be a good idea to go and get an x-ray. After 3 hours in A&E I had the x-ray and the nurse came back and said 'it's not broken, see ya'. I was quite relieved and went home and rang Melinda. I hadn't told her up until then as I didn't want to ring up and say 'I might have a broken ankle...'

Its getting better now and I can walk on it which is handy. There has been some excellent colours coming out in my foot and the swelling even managed to travel to my toes so now I have bruising in my toes! (Ever seen that before?) I saw the club physio who told me I was very lucky not to break it... Kudos to me eh?

Sister married and not long till ours...

Ben and Marisa

I (Adam) am back in London now after a very brief visit home for about 6 days for my sisters wedding. I managed to spend around 50 hours on planes in 8 days which allowed me to catch up on a few movies as well as get horribly jetlagged after trying to make my second 11 hour time zone adjustment in a week.

My favourite picture

The wedding was great and I must admit my sister looked fantastic and everyone seemed to have a good time. Now I am back in London until the 2nd of December to do a bit of work before I go back. Nothing too much has been happening since the last post as we have been toning down our usual holidaying activities to try and save for our wedding. Although having said that, I am off to Glasgow in 2 weekends for a mates stag weekend (bucks do for Aussies).
