A litany of bruises

Morzine is exactly what I expected, only more painful. So far I have;

1 skinned knee and associated gravel rashed thigh
ditto to 1 elbow
1 dislocated thumb
1 series of grazes up my right side, from navel to tit
1 bruised rib (I've fallen on the same one 3 times...)
Bruised left arse cheek
Bruised tailbone
1 Twisted ankle

and that's wearing body armour. This is more brutal than skiing.

It's bloody good fun though. My only concern is that my body won't last the week out so I'm taking today off to try and get my poor rib back online again. That's the one that's the most worrying at the moment because it undermines my already questionable upper body strength.

Naturally all the injuries have been sustained while pulling sick moves while totally amped.
