    A quick update

    Have moved to a hotel next to my work, thanks employer! Give me the ability to go to work with too much fuss. Quick trip in the wheelchair and i am there.

    Recovery is going well, final xrays on 1 july, hand will be back to normal by then and wheelchair replaced by crutches. Be back in business in no time!

    Later....

    Glad your getting around again and things are on the mend, shit I hope you didn't have to push the wheelchair into the wind we had today.

    All the best

    Good to hear your recovery is progressing. It won't be long now before you can start haunting the local bikeshops. In the mean sit back relax

    You will never guess what happened this week

    Went to court as a witness to support the police prosecutor charge the guy that caused me to crash into his trailer in May 2008. Well to make a long story short, he got off "NOT GUILTY".



    Hard to believe and I am angry and confused

    What ever happened to the Victims ????

    Anyway, now that the case has been closed I am sitting here trying to figure out how what where and really feel like kicking someone

    My body is disfigured, my mind is going crazy, my bank account depleted while the cager is at home having a party because the judge decided the trailer just came off and it wasn't his fault



    I don't get it !!!

    sorry to hear about the accident and all the problems that came with it, not much anyone can say to make it any better, my wife and I had a simillar situation with a drunk who got off and 10 years later she still has limmited use of her hand, so I really do feel for you, all I can do is hope there is such a thing as carma and the s.o.b gets whats comming, keep your chin up mate and best of luck
