Birth- and liberated leg-day

It was Gareth's birthday yesterday, and the highlight of his day was going to hospital to have his cast off! He now has a removable plastic 'boot' that inflates with air to help him start walking again. He still needs crutches and his zimmer, but at least he's on the way to walking. He hadn't been outside for 7 weeks, and the Aberdeen weather, in true form , rained unrentlessly (it had been sunny and bright for the preceeding week)!
Gareth's new past-time, as he is getting increasingly bored with his current indoor pursuits, is peeling the flaky skin from his leg. Nice.
