Hi TIm
Well went to see Tim yesterday. it was great to see him again after such a long time. I was really pleased that he was making a steady recover from his accident. I dont think this has put him off biking however it will brobable be a ehile before he can cock his leg over a bike. Maybe we could all put together and buy him a step though lol. any offers? anyway while I was there I moved his computer from up stairs ( where he can not get too) into the designated living space Known as Tims room for a short while. This will mean he will be able to chat with us all. that is if his kids will allow him on it that it. lol
anyway great to see you again mate. I will see if I can drop in when I pick up my bike in the week.

Kev, great to see you yesterday - nice bike   (you had to be there). The kids have gone out so I can get access to something other than Cbeebies now! Thanks for bringing the computer downstairs and setting it up again. In the end it was a much simpler (and cheaper) solution than wi-fi connection, laptop etc - me being a luddite as well!
Drop in for a coffee in the week if you get time and you can dry your tassles out if its raining!
Anyway, its great to be home - my wife is a saint - I don't know how she puts up with me! I'm pretty much housebound for the next month although I'll be able to take the odd trip out in the wheelchair. Its amazing how much you take everything for granted in terms of access etc normally.
No doubt I'll be on here quite a lot over the next few weeks, with as usual not much of interest to say!
Thanks for all your good wishes.

It's a good thing you're not getting rid of the wheels but heal fast and use the proper ones, instead

That's great news to hear, don't worry about having nothing of interest to say - I've been getting away with it for 6 years now and they haven't kicked me out of here yet.
Get well and - no wheelies in the wheel chair - well not just yet.

Only 6 years, Ed? It seems much longer.
Try not to annoy the wife too much Tim, you know she will make it up somewhere.
