Oh I'm glad I caught this post. I'm sorry to hear about your toe. That sounds like a really nasty one! And that's frome me, who is always getting injured. In the last year alone, I've stood on a screw in the garden and it them got infected (saved by plantain poultice), got six stitches in my arm surfing, and gave myself a nasty black eye. That's only in the last twelve months though. Jamie tells me to stop having adventures.

It's a shame about not swimming in the heat. At least a tropical heat you can get used to. I'm not a fan of 35 degrees dry heat in Morocco!

Thailand is a lovely place to be stuck. As I was reading o thought the injury sounded like a message but of course you knew that.
