Are You Experienced?...
Not yet, no...
but - after spending half the morning on the phone, I finally got through to the fizzio woman, who's going to get back to me re a placemen. One wisn't looking likely until November, the other is at Sutton hozzy and will hopefully be int he next few weeks.
I've also spoken or left messages for several other peeps at assorted local hospitals, and they're all going to get back to me. Some were more hopeful than others. Fingers corssed, between them they'll have enough for me not to look too crap!
I do have one definite placement, thanks to Fiona at SHirley Oaks hospital, for the 2nd and 3rd October, and another one at the Mayday thanks to a very helpful lady called Shelley. That's still a tad vague as no definite dates, but she obviously wanted to help and just had to speak to colleagues about details.
St Anthony's may have something for me, but not until January - still, it's all stuff that looks good, even if I can't quite talk about it as yet. I've left a message for St George's too.
I'm going to speak to a couple of local sports physios too - may as well try my luck, as it's all about pushing your luck. The wost they can do is say no! Sports physio isn't the best experience, as there's so much more to the job, but it's the direction I'm keen to head in at the moment, so I'd like to for my own sake, and I'm sure that alongside the other experience that it'll be good.
No training done - other than 40 mins weights in the gym - the physio stuff had to take priority, wish I'd done it sooner! Will get back to training more soon. Weight is a smidge down but still not below 90kgs - but that can wwait a week or so while I sort out the essentials. It'll go once I'm back to full on training!
