Amazing news following scan; muscle is torn and knee ligaments etc damaged, but tendon still attached. They've decided not to operate at this point, they just put me in a full leg tube cast to immobilise the joint and allow it to heal, then will see me in clinic in a couple of weeks.
No operation, and a very lovely and adorable Jon Tbolt who happened to be visiting at the time kindly gave me a lift home.
So here I am! Home, with no operation and just a pot on for me troubles.
Result!!
I had to cut a hole out of the front of the cast around the knee because it was put on too tight, but now that's adjusted it's great.
Thanks everybody for your support, it means a lot, and I'm SO relieved to not be getting cut.

That's great news I was concerned how such a busy fellow would have coped being off his feet for so long. Having said that take your time and get healed now don't be daft and rush it.
Take care bud

Hey Si, good to hear you're home and on the mend, and it didn't turn out nearly as nasty as it could have done.. Now stop pi**ing about and get that garage finished :-)

I'm feeling much better now, but it's a bit frustrating.
Can't drive,
Can't put my own socks and pants on
Shoes? Can't put them on.
As Jon will attest, can barely fit in a car, have to sit sideways across the back seat!
It's all very well sitting around like lord muck but I've got too much to do.
I'll be glad when I'm mobile again.
