I have lost my work gloves.

I had them on about ten minutes ago and now I can't find them.

Further news will follow...
 
About 5 or 6 years ago my wife tripped and fell over a sleeping policeman in a poorly lit car park. My wife fell on her right hand ending up breaking 3 fingers at the joints bending them back at right angles to the normal way they bend! :eek: She said that she bent them back to their normal position! :eek:
Luckily the security guards gave her some first aid and a passer by took her to hospital.
My wife has recovered the use of her hand but recommends that you should get physio and stick to it !

Ride It Like You Stole It!

First 'full' night ride last night (i.e. dark from start). Quite mild out. Missus is away so looks like 4 days on the bike - night ride tonight, and day rides sat sun.

Unfortunately I'm now 'under' surveillance as my accident 'schedule of loss' has been submitted to the third party insurer. It's already in my statement I don't ride the road anymore, so if they see me on my 'estate' on the road, I'll be head to toe in mud from the farm track nearby riding a dirty big MTB.

What a pallava this has been. Last medical was in January, and it's taken until now to get it all together. The three year anniversary is upon me in about 5 weeks - the third party has been given until 10th November to enter into 'meaningful' negotiations (haa haa yeh right), or we will submit court documents (has to be done before 26th November). Then all the costs go up, and we have about a year before we get a date in court. FFS.

The third party have been particularly aggressive I believe, despite liability being admitted. We've had to submit my medical records without having the one they had me attend - they won't release their details, which isn't playing ball. Their 'expert' only saw me for 15 minutes! He did say his report would say the same things as my expert most likely (he knew the other spinal consultant) so I suspect that is why they won't release it as prognosis isn't fabulous - concern being old age, not being able to adjust for a chunk of missing spine and slight kyphosis which I'm able to do now as I'm fit and active (compared to couch potatoes).

PS Please try and not get run over - the legal process is very stressful and not to be recommended.

Better stop pulling "wheelies" and "endos" in the nude then (not that I can do a wheelie). :laugh: or no-handed :wacko:
