Only miners can afford leather lounges....

This is inside my knee, after I snapped my kneecap. Im about 10 weeks into rehab, another month I think I'll be back at work. Can bend to around 120-130, which is enough for most things ( except squatting really low ). Strength is getting back there and I can just start to go down stairs.
In another year or two I plan on getting the wires cut out to give me a bit more range of motion.

How did you manage to trip arse up and end up with an immersion chiller in your knee?

Upon close inspection you can just make out Gina's G banger stuck between the cushions.

Mining isn't about what you know, but who you blow and I need a bigger flat!

You do need a bigger flat...but I cant help you getting blown.....unless its 454 Chev...

I heard it would give me better efficiency .

I'm a no chiller now, hate to try and get a cube in there though

Thanks mate, it happened in march and I'm now walking pretty much normal. My quads in that leg are still weaker though, but yesterday I went to a local beach that has 56 steps down to the sand and was able to go down and up 5 times each. Bit sore after but not too bad. I've got heaps of stairs at work so I need to be able to do them.

Yes, it is a pain in the arse. I hate running, but to not be able to if I need to, or with the kids is frustrating. Love to get back on my surf boards, but again, it could take a bit more time.

In time, i should get back to all that stuff but right now I'm just looking forward to going back to work.

Did I really just say that?

Yup....I couldn't even play football with my kids (soccer to the untrained) in the back yard without fear of twisting my knee. My knee collapsed once pushing the bloody lawn mower and couldn't stand up without help. I consider myself lucky compared to the pic of your knee. I hate running to....the only time I used to run was when I was being chased! Take it easy. Hope you get back to normal soon
Cheers

Being as we are having a show and tell, I will swap your broken knee cap and stalking wilbur's ankles
for this.My tumour.

 

[StalkingWilbur]

Damn. I hope things improve for you. Now that definitely makes mine look like nothing.

Just in case you need some cheering up, here is a photo of about 2 seconds before my ankle broke... Enjoy!

Gazed up to the sky this afternoon whilst waiting to pick someone up from train. I reckon the bastards were trying to sell us something.

That camera captured your buzz.

Hi Pollux. I've moved from Bribie Island to Old Bar. There's another Orange guy on the forum if you have a look around. Best Regards to Mrs and Ms Pollux.

Yes it's settled down around here, mostly brewing discussions believe it or not.

I'd never heard of Old Bar before till I looked it up... Taree yes....

Christ...I cant even stand to think about it.

That's exactly the way I feel every time I hear news like that.

So sorry for those people.

I can't stand any child deaths, I really can't watch the news any more with all those kids in Gaza and Syria getting injured and killed, so much negativity weakens the mind.
