The wife has been very helpful (NOT) and provided me with a countdown clock for my release, I can see it clearly from our bed and she insists it stays in place and on for the whole duration. Only 81 days or 1945 hours to go, not sure which sounds better!

Yes the torment has begun and I have no choices any more, I must do as I am told as privileges will be taken away, like socks, trainers to protect my ankles, freedom (from being tethered by a chain with limited movement in the house) or something worse that I haven’t even thought or dreamed about.
So far so good. A little tender on the legs but for my past experience this will ease after around 5 days, usually when I get used to moving around with smaller strides to avoid the tugging effect caused by the limitation of movement from the chain between the shackles.
