So the second x-ray confirms I have actually broken my elbow. Love looking at x-rays but finding it difficult to countenance resting it for 4-6 weeks - no CL3 work for me (or yoga) :( I need stronger bones..

I've spent most of the day trying to deal with all the emails and tasks within emails I've received this week. I've only got it down to 40...so sorry if you need something from me, but the constant stream has become undoable.
