I have had an accident at work and broken my toe,

[dot.hawkes]

it is really really hurting me and the hospital say can't do anything but rest and take painkillers, in the short term would a voddy and coke dull the agony?

[Katie~77]

Ahhhh, you poor thing. I'd have more than just the one voddy & coke, Dot.x

[steviep165]

i told you that you wernt a size 5 and those 4inch spikes were a bad idea didnt i?

[Amara]

Feet up dot and let your sons wait on you hand and foot (ha ha ) . Large V and C lots of ice xx Amara

[Cobra2]

were you kicking some lazy colleague up the rrrrs

[jipsquithesq]

Clearly ther is almost nothig that can't be improved by drinking vodka, with notable exceptions.

As long as your not planning on operation heavy machinery , like a crane from example - although that could be fun - i'd recommend grey goose.

[steviep165]

is that ice on her foot or in the voddy amara?

[jipsquithesq]

oh, spelling and sentence structure, too

apparently, hic

[naz_nomad]

dot, I doubt if just one would do the job ... looks like you're in for the long haul as far as voddy & coke goes.

[~Wingnut~]

Aww Dot! What happened? You poor thing, def would say more than 1 Vodka & Coke, purely medicinal of course :o)

Hope you get better soon! Take care

[dot.hawkes]

hi Wingnut,
there was a thunder storm about 4.20, I was re-merchandising the jasper Conran stand and I had just slid a shelf out and a dozy cow behind me shrieked cos it lightened outside and it startled me! I didn't know she was there, i have broken my toe next to the big toe on my left foot and badly bruised three others, they are really heavy safety glass shelves, I thought i had chopped my toes off.

[Amara]

Industrial injury ? I see lots of compensation coming your way - Ice in the vodka and on the foot!!

[twain11]

You have my sympathy Dot, i am always injuring myself at work so i now how it is, and vodka or other similer tonics help a lot.

[Pippa68]

Awww dotty :o(

I would have several, although mixed with painkillers it may not be a good idea!

I do sympathise with you as I have had several merchandising accidents whilst working in retail ~ mainly head & foot related. It's a painful business..rest up, hun & take care xx

[jipsquithesq]

Perhaps you could start your own shoe empire with the proceeds of your claim.

[jipsquithesq]

Or get stocked up on vodka.

[~Wingnut~]

Jeebus Dot, that sounds so painful!!!!!! Plenty of rest and plenty of medicine ;o)

Chin up, hope it gets better real soon (& that you get some compo ;o) lol)

[nobjob]

bloody hell woman the things you will do do put yer feet up with a vodka !!! hope you dont hurt too much mate xx im sending you some cyber love now can you feel it ?? has the pain in your foot eased up with it ?? its my mr miagi style massage !

[RATTER15]

Get back to work Woman, all this lying about no good to man nor beast, you can still stand on other leg!! Women!!!

[wonder years]

oh dot know how this feels i broke my little toe a few good year a go at the time it was very painful when eventually it went, it wasent till a few years later it began to get really painful again[i bet some are thinking a little toe that painful but honest it was] i went to the doc , and he said it was broke and the pain was because it had athritis in it, so take extra care, and hope it feels better soon

[A Chill Wind]

My sympathies. Would any of this little lot be of use to you?
