...Whoever it was who dug a hole near a style I use to get to the river, they'd covered the hole enough to make the surrounding area look like there was nothing amiss, I found out the hard way, I put my foot on to the hole which was about 18" deep and lurched forward, apart from scratching my rod badly, putting holes in my hands where I grabbed for something to steady myself (it happened to be a barb wire fence), I damaged my false leg, I've basically broken off the top four inches and smashed the locking mechanism that keeps it on, it took my 25 minutes to get back to the car. My stump has swollen up so much I can't get my spare leg on, so it looks like I won't be fishing for a while.

Sorry to hear of your bad luck, Old Chap.

I hope your leg gets better soon and you have a relaxed weekend

Sit down, take a glass of cool milk and tie some small spiders, while litening to some soothing music, this will help you relax.
