David Beckham didn't "Do a Beckham" he did a "LaineyG"
I shattered my metatarsal looooonnnngggg before he did!
Best thing about it was my mum refused to take me to casualty. She's been there 3 times in the previous fortnight and said "I can't take you again, they'll think we're abusing you" so I walked about on my broken foot for 2 weeks!
I went to the GP for jabs and said "My foot hurts" he took one look and sent me straight to casualty! My poor mum!
I was a right tomboy. Always falling off bikes/walls.
Then about 10 years ago I dislocated my ankle falling over drunk (well, I was actually trying to give my mate a piggy back. She said "READY?" I said "READY" she said "GO!" I said "Oh wait a minute............thump"
I was sooooo drunk that I got up and into a taxi, went back to a party, said to random bloke "I've skint my knee....look!" he said "Fuck yer knee, look at yer ankle!!!!"
Another trip to casualty where I remember telling v nice young doctor "I know you can't treat me because I'm drunk, but if it's hurting this much, when I'm this drunk, then I must have done something REALLY bad!"
He agreed!
Ended up on crutches for a fortnight.
