Two weeks into getting the ankle back to fitness and it does seem that after an initial period of progress, recovery does seem to have ground to a halt. It's not all bad; the swelling is now reduced to just around the ankle itself, bruising is still significant but not as colourful, and I am now more mobile. However, there is still pain, in some ways more noticeable than earlier, and it does seem that it could be 2 or more weeks before I can really test it.

It should be no surprise therefore that my predictions of "relentless swells down the east coast now!" , seem to be being realised :o( Naips texted me yesterday with reports of a solid and clean 4-6' swell along the Lincs coast, with occasional 8' sneakers!!!! Russ has picked up a rib injury following a coming together with a groyne on one particularly heavy wipeout. Seems 2 of the crew are now on the injury list!
