This is not a great issue, and it will pass, but I need to share it with people who will understand.
I have an arthritic knee which sometimes is really painful. Theseus is awaiting a hip replacement and is often in a lot of pain, and I think I offer lots of sympathy, comfort, and try to ease it. (Halo emoticon)
BUT, just now, I was going up our curved staircase and grabbed a bannister as the knee twinges. The bannister thingy came out of its moorings and I landed on the * knee.
Himself comes out to see what's happened, picks up the bannister thingy, frowns, tuts, puts it back and walks off. "Thanks for the sympathy," say I.
"Oh, are you OK?" says he, disappearing off to the TV. I went off to my bath, and am now back in the sitting room, quietly seething. Aaaagggghhhhh!
