I've had that already, when I was 14 and had a burst appendix . In hospital for a week or so. Apart from the excruciating pain beforehand - far worse than a broken arm, if you've never experienced both - it was actually much more fun than this .

seriously GWS.
Supportact said: [my style is] probably more an accumulation of limitations and bad habits than a 'style'.
A classic example was Vauxhall/Opel in the early 2000's enforced fully guided (aka an idiots step by step guide) diagnostics for warranty claims, and you had to have proof you had followed the relevant guide, even if the fault was blindingly obvious. They realised a few years ago it was costing them that much in labour, they've now introduced what they call strategy based diagnostics. They provide all the information for given fault codes on a single page, and it's up to the technician to decide how they're going to find the fault. You can then claim what you see as a reasonable time for diagnosing the fault.
It does make more sense provided you're not expecting your average service tech to fix things, but I do miss the bonus boosting 0.9hrs to diagnose a knackered glow plug, which in reality took 2 minutes to test, and 5 minutes to create the relevant diagnostic proof.

Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
I have to go in on Wednesday for assessment on the possible surgery for the broken bit.

As for "when am I ready?" You'll never be ready. It works in reverse, you become ready by doing it. - pmbomb
I had had a leg injury a couple of years ago that was annoying but aside from walking problems I could at least work and play guitar etc. Losing use of an arm would drive me potty.
