    Had a few probs with the cast on my ankle so my very nice Orthopaedic Consultant (who I have found out is the surgeon for Manchester City) has today arranged for an 'Aircast' to be fitted. Apparently its known as a Beckham or Rooney boot!

    It has three separate air chambers that I can adjust via a pump myself, cool.

    The Supertech R of casts!
