Does Leon have an alternative means of transport? Will he be ok at home? Is there anyone nearby that can assist him with whatever he needs?
If you can keep your head in the midst of all this confusion, you don't understand the situation!

He has called a friend to fetch and carry, and I am plan "B" in Centurion (where he lives)

He was gonna have some crutches dropped off last night.

If you are plan B and he needs a party for new year's eve bring him along to our place with you by cage. He can help keep you in control with the pool!!

When someone say you are 'down to earth', it is not to be taken literally.
Heal well, cause its not gonna be quick, 6 weeks is not quick.

Glad to hear there was no need for pins etc... that tends to entail a longer recovery. :thumleft: :thumleft:
Drink baie melk en los die rookgoed terwyl jou been heg indien jy rook. Nicotene is nie goed vir die bloeds omloop nie, kan die hegting van bene baie belemmer.

I don't think Leon smokes, and only drinks in moderation at selected bash's and bosberaads.  ;D

Thanks for all the well - wishes all. I'm back at home and I can relax a bit now.

I don't know what the hell got into me to try that hill, there was a nice path I could have taken but oh no, I had to prove something. Well I did prove something, even if it was oposite to what I wanted to prove  :biggrin:

That smoking thing: Every doctor and nurse asked me if I smoked, and they all told me how lucky I am that I don't, so apparently smoking really does slow the healing process.

Anywayz, I can't ride, so I'll have to surf!
Thanks again to Pistol, Miena Moo, Groenie and everyone else who helped to pick me up and carry me around while I was screaming like a wounded pig. Oh, wait...
And to the nurses, doctors and everybody else at Steve Bicko Hospital for the great care and treatment they gave me!
Great news, my book 'Sniffer' has seen the light of day on Amazon Kindle!

Elke keer as ek soos n hooligan die draaie vat sal ek aan jou dink :thumleft:

There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep Sea, and music in its roar:
I love not Man the less, but Nature more"
