Feeling fed up almost finished Mrs Ms dolls house (just a little wiring to do and the bunging it together (like the tech terms :D)) when I go down with a bacteria which has blown my lower leg to almost twice it's normal size.
I'm on so much penicillin (4 grams per day) I have to stay clear of "blue cheeses" or I'll merge with it :smiley-laughing:
So all work is now on hold, Can't even stand by the set up and play :'(.
Still another 2 to 3 weeks and I'll be working on the lay out again, well after the dolls house is finished.
Ouch. I imagine the pains quite bad so keep taking the tablets.
Hurry up and get well soon
So now you can start your new career as a wicket keeper.
This might cheer you up a bit,

Hi Mike,
So sorry to hear about your affliction :(
Having had a hip replacement 10 days ago, my operated leg has also ballooned to the extent that when my sister took me shopping today, I ended up like one of the folks you see in Wal-Mart as I had to wear a trackie suit and slippers (couldn't get anything else on my feet/legs) :-[
Big difference, though, is that I can still get to test some trains now and then :angel:
No photos, presumably, then, Mick :D
Sounds like my current problem. Cellulitis.
I had it a couple of years ago and now again..................

Absolutely no chance, George :no: :-[
Swollen legs are nasty, I got bit by a Horsefly a while back and my leg swelled up like a balloon, must be allergic to those pesky flies :veryangry:
Hope both of you chaps get well ASAP.
Another sufferer here, 9th March slipped on a grassy bank while trying to play golf, something popped on my left calf, very painful, by the Wednesday pain subsiding but leg starting to swell. Tried leg up higher than heart and anti inflammatories (I’ve had this before but not recently) by Monday it wasn’t getting any better so trip to doctors, check for possible blood clot and given 7 day course of antibiotics, following Monday no better back to docs given 14 day course at an increased dose. Today seems to be Ok so fingers crossed tomorrow I’ll be able to get on with the cupboards that will support my baseboards. I had this some years ago in India, went to a local “Cottage” hospital where they gave me a 7 day course of drugs that had me right in 36 hours!. I’ve kicked myself ever since that I didn’t take a note of what it was. On top of that a heavy cold and poisoned toe aren’t helping, HID wants to trade me in for a newer model with a better warranty! :(
Hope all subsides soon, David, and that HID was just joshing :worried:
At least it didn't happen on your trip to Middle Earth. Hope it clears up soon! :thumbsup:
I developed cellulitis in my lower leg some years ago. the result was 14 days in hospital with enormous doses of intravenous antibiotics. It came within inches of removing the leg, phew!. Luckily i rallied but still had 2 months off work.
try some sit down modelling, painting all those little passengers for instance.
Almost back on my feet, even if one is still larger then the other (or could that be one is smaller then the other :smiley-laughing:), managed to get on with Mrs Ms dolls house, all the electrics are in, just to build it now. Should be getting on with MEHR next week.
Thanks for all the good wishes. just glad I've finished, for now, with the pills I was beginning to rattle :D

Just avoid the blue ones :laugh3:
Well after a PC breakdown, I'm back with a new built PC. All I need to do now is remember all my passwords as my memory isn't good at the best of times....... this could be a long job. I'm hoping that I can still read some of the drives on the old PC.
