I was up a ladder trimming my devil trees.
Came down and missed the third rung up.
Free fall for about 5 Milli Seconds
And whump landed on my right side.
Thought "ow", but actually it didn't hurt, I was unscathed !
Landed on a very mossy patch of my lawn, nice and springy.
At 60+ I think I was lucky to get away unhurt.
So I won't be muttering about lawn moss in future.
N.B. The chain saw was nearby, I could have landed on that!
Perhaps that's something to be learned.
Don't leave you tools around the base of your ladder, keep the area clear.
