The engineer came yesterday, and yes it's a write off

But I have a cunning plan which is already falling into place, new fairings in the same weave but with kevlar reinforcement as made by the guy who does the GSE fairings, a possible frame is available, all the other bits are standard, Forza have agreed a rebuild programe it all depends on what can be sorted with the insurance co.

No real rush at the moment but the "Schwatz Hund" will be at WDW 2010

Who's comming to the best party in the world ?

Sept Misano Adriatica, not to be missed

Been back and forth to the Doc's the past few days, still have a few issues but he has been very generous with the co codamol - 200 capsules ! !!! is he telling me somthing ?

Hope not, 8 per day = 25 days of this level of pain

The co co is working and have taken the CBT crutch test, Nurse, my broth has gone home so I am solo, had 2 days just"bumming" around and have tried to rest the left shoulder as it does not help putting weight on it, even thou it's only 60Kg !!
Sleep still a bit of a problem as you may see by the time this was posted

Blood blister now popped and doing the dressings myself, now got a discount card at Boot's

Had a good day at Silverstone Sat and had a chat with Murray Walker who had me in stitch's with some of his comments such as, what did they say" Sorry mate I did not see you" Such a wit, apparentley he had a ear infection on Sunday, was that my fault

Re build plans continuing with help from some club members and others

Good to hear you're coping. Sleeping was one of the hardest things I found with a broken collar bone - I couldn't lay flat but had to be propped at 45deg with pillows. Made for an interesting night when you keep rolling over in your sleep!

Those co-codamol pills work wonders
