Sympathies go out to Rob Patton, who was enjoying himself so much on Caddon Bank this afternoon that he decided to make a new route straight down the hill collecting an open fracture of his left forearm in the process (what are those bones called Lee? tib and fib?). He was really brave about it and walked himself down the hill to the waiting ambulance before being wisk'ed of to borders general where I suspect he will be staying until monday. Pictures will no doubt be available soon for the blood thirsty and strong of stomach.
Ouch nasty. It's Radius and Ulna your thinking of the leg.
1. Don't let people go off on their own, its was 5 minutes before we realised he wasn't coming back up for another go at the drops :-(
Oh dear. Still you found him in the end.
2. When you are feeling really confident and skillful is the time when you are most likely to fall off and hurt yourself :-)
Hell, when you relax and think "I'm fucking legend" that's when it goes wrong.
