Ooops!


Living in Cambridge, we do much of our travelling about by bike. I love my bike and Smaller Bean rides on the back giving me a rolling commentary on yellow cars, motorbikes and the bin lorries. She loves the bin lorries. Always has done. She waves enthusiastically at them which can be a bit embarrassing at times.

Yesterday we took Small Bean up to Beavers and on the way home, our (not so) trusty two wheeled transport managed to spill us. Thankfully we were not on a road and a lovely lady stopped to ask if we were ok, which we were. Smaller Bean was not happy about the sudden sideways skid and being trapped in her seat but she was completely unharmed. I, on the other hand had a Very Painful elbow and foot. I have had to throw my shoes away because one of them has a hole in it now. Over last night, more and more bits of me were beginning to feel sore. I have a very impressive lump and bruise on my leg. Look!



Actually, this doesn't really do the bruise justice. And my elbow isn't much better. It is not as painful as it was yesterday, at least I can bend it again but pressing down on it still hurts lots.

We were brought home by our lovely neighbour, Becka and then looked after by Big Bean. As for the bike, I won't be getting back on it until Big Bean has done a thorough MOT on it this weekend. And I've got a little shoe shopping trip to plan...
