One key takeaway is Barcelona is great, going back next summer.

Another is think carefully every time your feet leave the ground. I fell off a ladder and was ok, but I could have broken my neck.

How did you fall? What happened exactly?

I built a shed office in my back garden. My garden is sloped. I was working on the roof trim of the shed up a ladder and it gave way. I hadn't been careful enough that the ground was level. I fell from about shoulder height and landed on my shoulders, from behind.

oh that could have been nasty. if something had been on the ground... you got lucky! well done for surviving :)
