Doing pretty well now, first 2 weeks I was suicidal from the constant pain and disability. Then this weekend I turned a corner, and am recovering quickly. Ribs still give insane pain spasms, arm strapped for at least another 4 weeks to protect my broken collar bone. Yep, bleeding and fluids filling my lungs appeared to be my doctor's greatest concerns, but I appear to have avoided that, you gotta be lucky!

Forget the surgery, it's a last resort. I have been symptom free for the past 3 years after smoking 0.5gm of high THC Indica cannabis every evening just before bed. No other medications required.

Tell that to the Thai guy that tried to kill me 2 weeks back!

Her children get 50% and her parents get 50%

i thought she was speaking out against vaccinating healthy children and young people against COVID. Not sure many, if any of them, would have died from COVID.

Follow the government line or lose your job! In our modern world no dissent will be tolerated.

You forget you are only talking about foreign men. It's way easier for a foreign woman married to a Thai man. As for being elderly and alone in Thailand, Again only a problem for you as you married a Thai woman too old to have children with you.

You can't beat chain link fencing. At night my 3 girls live here, during the day they're out and about in the garden. Rabbits die very easily, expect 50% death, and the survivors live forever.

This is me, not spoken with my 4 former Brit kids in nearly 15 years. I created another family, they can't create another dad. Their loss!

Some progress this morning, His insurance phoned my wife and agreed to pay all bike repairs and any medical costs over and above my government minimum. Following due police process.

Same for me, my last 2 elderly pals died in April and September this year, my last relative is in the middle stages of dementia.

They traced the guy that ran me down using traffic lights video. Apparently it's all my fault for bumping his car with my bag at the previous lights. No explanation why he didn't stop after knocking me off, or report the accident to the police until over a week later. No idea what will happen now.

Happy with the one I've got, she's 47 now but I still find her attractive after nearly 15 years together. Does she love me? Haven't a clue, I'm completely unable to predict a woman's true feelings, but I certainly love her.

As well as can be expected, thanks. Pain destroys concentration, so I've not got much interest in doing anything. Can't read a book, hard to use computer as only 1 hand, been watching old westerns where I know them so well I don't need to concentrate. Yesterday was Ulzana's Raid, this aft was Big County.

I'm actually using an Avery modular helmet, not expensive around 700bht but best of both worlds. Can use it with the front lifted so it's like a half helmet, or use it with the front fully locked down like a full face helmet. Wasn't sure about it at first as I thought a hard smash might rip the full face module off. As it worked out, completely effective for a seriously hard smash in the jaw and chin. Very comfortable to wear, plenty of airflow, no need to take your glasses off to put it on. Not a mark/bruise/cut on my head,

They cut me off Thursday, every little move I make, every little breath I take hurts like b%$#@&y.

Normal single lane road, little traffic, plenty of room to overtake but traffic light in front.

No alcohol at all but 4 shots of morphine and all the Tramadol I can eat.

I faced Death last Friday morning, and laughed as he failed to get me.

Thanks, but I have no interest in punishing anyone for this in any way. The m/c was worth 40k, no big loss if it's a write off, police have already offered 10k as is. My government minimum insurance have already given the hospital permission to spend up to 30kbht, no further notification required. 6kbht spent so far ...... a few more visits booked. I'm paying for bandage changes at a local clinic @200bht a go, too lazy to queue for the free changes at the hospital. Extremely happy to come away from such a serious accident with just a small financial loss, and a few weeks pain and limited mobility. Considering all the other holiday horror news stories on here, resulting in massive bills and permanent disabilities. It could have been me, but it wasn't.

Big difference between accepting death when he calls, and wanting to be dead.

Nah, she's best pals with them, they're all on first name terms with her.

They would if they knew who he was. today my misses is off to the police with a Honda dealer to value the bike and get the repair costs. Then she'll decide whether to repair and sell, or to accept a police bid on the wreck.

IMHO marrying a woman anywhere in the world is a high stakes bet!

I remember slowing for the red light way ahead then a big 'crunch'. Nothing between then and being helped into the ambulance. Police a in a 'feeding frenzy' to buy the wreck from me (3 phone calls in the last hour). They're getting a Honda dealer to evaluate the repair cost (if they catch the guy, he'll be paying). Told my wife it's her bike and she can sell to whomever she likes and keep the money. It's a bit too big and heavy for me now, much more comfortable on the Click 160i.
