Eventually got to portmagee and the chocolate factory then drove back as his lordship refused to take the ferry It was lovely apart from the road back from cahirsiveen where you are high up and the sea appears to be a sheer drop, gave me a bit of vertigo

.ak wrote: » One thing I will say is 'rupture' can be a nasty word for bruised. So long as it's not torn, you should be okay, basically a bad sprain of the ligament. Scan will tell you what's what, but whatever happens I 100% recommend a good physio. Doctors just care about you being disease free, your physio will care about your every day practical functionality.

A few years ago I lost the cartilage in my other knee and my physio was invaluable so I'll go back to them. A good physio is worth their weight in gold.
