BRITISH OLYMPIC CYCLIST OUT IN BIZARRE GARDENING ACCIDENT

British cyclist Katie Archibald will miss the Paris Olympics after breaking her leg in a freak accident. The 30-year-old former gold medalist suffered a double leg break, dislocated her ankle, and ripped her ligaments after tripping over a garden step. In a statement on Instagram on Thursday she wrote, “I tripped over a step in the garden and managed to, somehow, dislocate my ankle; break my tibia and fibula; and rip two ligaments off the bone. What the heck.”
* We could have done without the strong language, my dear.
* This right here is exactly why I don’t garden.
* Oooo – the agony of de-feet! (sorry about that one. – M.S.)
* Tough break!
* She should have taken up a safer hobby than gardening. Like bullfighting.
