And hoping to go for a short walk on New Years Day, but tripped / slipped over a tiny kerb delivering Xmas cards in the dark this morning, and have a twisted ankle, a stiff knee with a purple (already!) bruise, a sore wrist and a jarred back & neck. A short walk around a pond is about it at the moment.

Sorry to hear that.
Thanks. The knee is going interesting colours and I keep finding new bits which are sore. It's amazing how people can have big falls and walk away very little harmed, and I trip over a 2" (or less) kerb and am sore in most places. It certainly hurt a lot less when I went for a long accidental slide on 'snow' some years back.

Bah Humbug!
I shall just have to have a drink instead....
Are you sure that isn't what caused it?
At 7:30am? Quite, quite sure especially as I didn't have a drink the night before. However I've collected my brother from the airport early evening and he doesn't believe in too much sobriety.... ;-)

I can sympathise with the ankle bit.

Well at least I fell off a big rock.
Ouch!

Adrenalin probably, or something like that.
I think it's just that sliding hurts less (in general) than landing in a big heap.
