I took a long hobble into Balham, only resting once on the way. (I now know every place to sit on the way.) I've still only got the borrowed shorts to wear, so the metalwork gets really cold (the temperature is just above freezing) and extracts the heat from my leg. It's a bone numbing pain. I noticed a couple of girls from yoga in Starbucks, so I swerved inside to say hello. ...Managed to make them squirm at the sight of my kebabish leg.
One of them is an instructor. She tells me that some disabled people do yoga on chairs, so now my determination to restart classes is doubled! I'm going to speak to the doctors and physios this week and get the all-clear.

I have lunch in "the poncy place" (Harrisons) where there are low seats and footstools. Then I hobbled down to the seamstress to collect my jeans. I fit the sleeve she's made, tighten the ribbons around the frame, and the leg feels warmer already! Great. Jeans and sleeve £28 all in.Hobble back home, resting twice. Try on the jeans... they just squeeze over the frame if I pull hard. No more cold knees for me! A good day at last.
