Enjoy without any sense of guilt.

Such wonderful news about the GBBO, a new era for the show and one that I'm totally here for.

Will see how it goes!

The weather isn't ideal this week for outside projects.

Thoughts and wishes 😉🤣

I'll survive, deep cut but missed the tendons there.

It's been cleaned, taped closed and bandaged. Need to keep the hand elevated to relieve the swelling which might delay recovery + dry for next week or so.

Luckily the cut was very clean so should have minimal scarring.

Also had tetanus 💉

I'll live 🤣

Luckily the cut missed the tendons and bone, wound has been cleaned, taped closed, need to keep the hand dry and elevated (as swollen) whilst it heals over the next week.

Keep an eye out for infections...

Had a tetanus jab too.

I've come down to the Urgent Treatment Centre to see if I might need stitches.

Will probably need a tetanus jab too.

I hope it doesn't come to having to take time off, maybe a few stitches at worst.

Deep cut to the back of my hand.

I was tying a Camelia to a frame to train and cloud prune. The string broke whilst tying the knot, hand slipped and went into the support frame.
