for anyone who cares

You'll be a fluent one-handed touch-typer by the time your rehab's up!
Hope it goes well, keep up the exercises... I'm sure they guys here will amuse you plenty, but I guess an assortment of rugby/cricket/Tour de France/Olympics will help to pass the time too!
Are you actually housebound or can you get out and about?

im free to roam, as i live across the road from a train station its convenient as i can't drive. probably go to belmont a bit, i like my horseracing, movies and shopping too maybe. might even go in to work soon to help organise this $750000 job coming up ..... sport on telly rocks

[NTT]

no i meant when it was all severed and bloody and gooey.
"get your phones out boys, i got a wallpaper for you"

more or less wrapped it up and 'rushed' to the hospital ...... everyone saw it though. it was too painful to hang round for happy snaps unfortunately

when i smashed my head open in a spa in karratha in a drunken haze, i got some pics waiting for the ambulance. had blood from my forehead to my knees. that ended in 30 stitches, two black eyes and unemployment ....
that's where a 5 day drugs and alcohol bender got me

good luck with it all - sounds like you will miss the craic at work more than anything else ! Not sure we would be much use to you - But as your're bored ..... here's a list of things I wouldn't mind knowing:

1: Get Smart is it as bad as everyone says?
2: Mamma Mia - can you sing at it in a regular cinema? like what's the point if you can't?
3: Tour de France - 1 paragraph - what do I need to know - they all look the same in a yellow jersey - WTF is that writing on the road about ???????
4: Horse Racing talk to KQ - but odd on the Olympics - can you bet on how many golds in the pool etc.. how many medals is Oz looking at seriously etc...
5:What is the hardest thing to do with only 1 hand - can you open a can of beer or a bag of chips

[jono]

can, yes. i did it at work today because i didnt want to put down my pie.
bag o chips, yes with the aid of teeth

[NTT]

TQ1:
1 and 2 are not movies i would willingly go and see so i don't know about Get Smart. As for Mamma Mia sing your heart out, whats the worst that could happen.
3: Don't know about the tour, cycling confuses me. Yes they do look all the same as with swimming. I just barrack for the aussies if i don't understand whats happening. The road markings are probably for regular traffic or something.
4: Don't know if sportsbet is doing odds on the Olympics, I'd avoid it if they were. As for the Olympics, maybe look back at the last few Olympics and work out how many gold medals we average and bet on that. At your own risk of course.
5: The hardest things to do is tying shoelaces, playing playstation 3 and sleeping as my hand starts throbbing if i leave it one position too long. Thank god for painkillers .... im off the booze unfortunately

No war-stories that come close, ntt, but I'm sorry to hear about yours

[pieter blackie]

Get better soon mate

hey, war stories are cool mate, Adrian Blacker the F orces equipment manager used to be our fitness coach when i played at Cottesloe. He is also an ex SAS soldier. He is also one hell of a great bloke. He showed us how to do the SAS flag ceremony and once got us into the SAS base at swanbourne for a celebration dinner after we won a colts premiership which was a once in a life time experience. Some of the situations he was faced with are mind blowing .....

Welcome back dude. There's one question that I'm sure everyone has been wanting to ask.....was it your right or left hand that you damaged.......and are you right or left handed?!?!

Good luck with the rehab - I've had my hand/wrist in plaster a couple of times and it wasn't a pretty sight/smell when it came time to remove it!!!

[lara93]
