They weren't :( J now has a back slab cast, which will be made full on Monday, but which will hopefully be off in 4 weeks rather than 6 because the bones have stayed well aligned so far. KH was great, though, and lovely to see Manorborns and Rebecca with J and R, plus Bob, J and A were able to join us for the last hour or so :D We hired a car and Bob took J and A to fracture clinic while I took Rainedrops and remaining children to KH, hoping Bob and co would be along soon.

He seems to be coping well so far - slept okay with arm supported, no pain relief yet today and he says it hurts but not so much that he needs to take anything... I was dubious about postponing app't, but if they can't pot it anyway then maybe it doesn't make much difference, as long as the cuff holds it correctly?
