I went to the supermarket yesterday to get food for lunch....
and slipped on a grape and broke me ankle.
Ended up in a ambulance in a hospital and now with a cast on my leg and my sister in law here helping me with the baby!

Poor t'ing.
Can I write on your cast?
It was a day for screaming at inanimate objects.
What this calls for is a special mix of psychology and extreme violence...

What a Bummer,
Wishing you a swift and full recovery.
BUT ALSO
Get a lawyer, the supermarket will undoubtedly have some liability for your injury, economic losses and pain and suffering.

wtf
Staggeringly crappy luck. Are we in a competition for crappo stuff in our lives. Rhys came down with the runs today on top of car needing $7200 of repair and father in law having heart attack last week. I did 4 rides to school on Wednesday. Thighs of steel I tell you.
Was it your dislocated knee leg or the other one? Were you juggling pineapples or something.
Maybe you could get one of those gocarts. Like a golf cart. Taj could drive it for you. Now you have a damn good reason for sitting on HOP and chatting to us all

perhaps the supermarket will payout and you will have enough to be able to go to the uk?

yeah, unless you dropped the grape there you should make a claim and then they'll get a private dective, and in about 6 months you should get a cosy pay out to spend with your newly healed leg!

Darn unclean supermarkets. Sue, I say, Sue! (As in the legal thing, I'm not calling for someone).
Hope you're not in too much pain, and it gets better soon. Do you have a knitting needle on hand for scratching?

How bizarre, Something similar happened to me, I seriously twisted my ankle last night - I thought i'd broken it - Was nursing the baby and my leg went to sleep. got up, took a step, and i heard a 'snap'!!
Here I yelped, as I was holding a sleeping baby in my arms, so I hobbled to buggy, put her down, then headed for bathroom to as i was either gonna faint or throw up from fright! spent the next 15 mins on my knees next to toilet, cryin in pain, fighting waves of nausea!

Holy crap, how did I miss this?
Which leg bit did you break, do you have to wear a full leg cast?
Also, more importantly, did you get a cast that's a cool colour and not a boring white one?
But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
