Rsser's accident.

[rsser]

True.

But last trip I had to cancel cos of the broken wrist and hadn't organised it yet. Dropped a bundle. Trip before I trashed a knee. 3x unlucky?

Hand therapist says we can now move to reviews every f/night.

She seems to think I'm doing enough self-punishment ;-}

Clocked missionary position on Sunday for the first time in 6 months.

Just in case you were interested

Too much info.

[rsser]

Yeah, sorry.

It's just that at each review the therapist asks 'is there anything you still can't do with your hand?'

I'd never mentioned this limitation. Not easy with a young attractive therapist.

Who might actually reply in a way to make us both blush ;-}

Well, I've posted my satisfaction at moving from Muslim to Christian position with clean-ups in the little room.

Just thought I should add another progress note to my transition.

If holding my arms up in a black frock in the back yard before a crucifix could've provided instant wrist rehab I would've tried it. And sod the neighbours. What's the prob with floor length frocks I ask you.

[rsser]

Woohoo!

The bike started almost instantly today. Took it for a slow circuit of the back yard. No dramas.

Scrubbed the rust spots off the chain. Scrubbed the bug splats off the waterproof jacket. 2 seasons' worth. Damn drought.

Tried the new helmet on. A bit tight but the foam should pack down. Or my head might return to normal size.

Tomorrow we'll head out to meet up with the scheduled club ride start. A few minutes bullshitting and I'll head quietly back home. About an hour.

Matches the therapist's prof'l advice re functional rehabilitation

Yeah, just turning up is 90% of what's required. Not sure who said that (or words to that effect), but reckon it's about right.

Have fun showing off your war wounds!

They'll be more interested in the quality of the bike repairs

It didn't work for corporal Klinger either Ern.

[rsser]

No, what a hoot Klinger was.

Well I survived the outing. Beautiful crisp sunny morning.

I just assumed that anything on the road was out to get me. Esp. 3 roos crossing at a gully. 3 dead ones lying on the road shoulder a testament to the danger.

Came home and iced up the aching paw. Have to unlearn the paranoia grip.

[rsser]

Hah, just completed the marathon of getting travel insurance for NZ.

What a joke.

All the paperwork for pre-existing medical conditions. GP has to do the assessment, but do I see the GP for soft-tissue injuries or joint rehab? No.

Anyway, it's done and it cost a pittance cos NZ has a no-fault accident insurance scheme (includes travellers from o/s) and reciprocal Medicare arrangements.

Had excellent service from YHA Travel, as I started with them online, being a member, and the Team Leader in Melb. couldn't have been more helpful. Dunno what their cut was but the premium for 2 1/2 weeks was all of $97.

Wrist's excluded off course, so I'll just remember to fall to the left
