Shoulder On!

The same rope swing that got Scott G in "Snapshot" got me too when I was 17 and tried to swing on it standing on the stick instead of sitting on it...cue suspension over a twenty foot drop hanging by one (dislocated) arm! Mum's verdict? - "Don't be rediculous! If you'd dislocated your shoulder, it would be agony!"

"....erm, hello?!"

Two nights later, diving into the swimming pool - I decided to do a Quasi Modo impersonation - with my arm coming out of my side! Now, that was agony!

  1. In fairness, you weren't in agony at that point because the shoulder had gone back in when you fell on it, so there was nothing to see and I thought you'd imagined it! However, I do admit that was not my finest hour as a Mum! Sorry! I think I let you down worse than the rope did! Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! xxx

  2. Me?! Imagine an injury?! I think not, mother! I seem to remember I was like a little miniature Spartan soldiering silently through life's hardships manfully. No?

  3. Mmmm! Perhaps my memory is failing. I can't seem to recall a silent Spartan.
