The good news is nothing broken, just painkillers and antibiotics and stitches out on 10 days. That will be a pretty sight… not!. Might have to wear “longs” in Italy!
The medical centre in the tiny town/village La Paca was excellent. The University hospital in Cartagena was excellent too. Just took a long time (about 3.5 hours including x-rays)
The guys on the course and the instructor all played a blinder too, including Simon driving us to the hospital and having to hang around…. and an early start tomorrow
If you are reading this and hopefully not squeamish, here is the stitched up leg. Believe me, it looked far worse when completely open and leg muscles showing!

Ohhh bless you hope your on the mend soon ? xxxx
Thank folks. Just a flesh wound ?
Ouchhhhhhh Hope you have a speedy recovery Ian that looks very sore, stick to walking it’s a lot safer xx
