Just me personally, but I wouldn't invite her for Christmas Dinner!

Well a busy day today for me 2 appointments up at the hospital rehab at 11:30 and Orthopaedic at 2 so be a late run home, didn't wear my leg on the weekend but yesterday had it on to go down to the new car to workout all the controls, when in the car I took the leg off while sitting in the drivers seat I used my left leg on the pedals to see if I could use the pedals before the mods are done and I had no problem at all so Thursday going to find a quiet place and see how I go driving the car, my first driving lesson is booked in for the 29th with a dual control car using my left leg/foot.

I was also walking around the house yesterday afternoon with my leg without any aids just me and 2 legs, but I won't tell rehab that as they will freak out as in rehab I haven't got to that stage yet with them, what they don't know won't hurt them.

5 day's time and my Norton will be 50 years in my ownership from new, so a few drinks on Saturday with a few mates that grew up with me and my Norton, might even fire it up on the day, just not ready to ride it yet but soon as learning to walk again without aids is so close, but then I start on the ES install, I going to give it a bit more time before I be riding it so with some of the mods I have to do to fit a bigger battery for the starter, be good doing some work on the Norton again as it's been so long as my Norton is pretty reliable and I leave it alone when its running so well, the Joe Hunt and Amals work so well together, just got to get it up on the lift table so do that Saturday when the mates are here.

Well just waiting now for the taxi could come anytime from now till 10:30, sometimes its early and sometimes its late very rare it's on time, but it doesn't cost me nothing to go up there and back home, take 45 minutes to get to the hospital from my place.

That's all folks.

I would think not!
A) You don't even know her, and
B) She's in another country

No i am protected now, she knows i am bad, not really, she knows all my vices she just turns a blind eye and she is welcome home anytime, her birthday is the same day i brought my Norton new.

Very sorry to hear such upsetting news, I wish both of you a hasty recovery as best may be.

Like I said, when I was in a "boot" with plate & screws healing in my broken right leg, I just set my right leg up on the transmission hump and drove with my left foot for 2 months till I was released to walk without the boot!
