    Hey All,
    so, yeah, still have Mum, my Sister and their dog and cat living with us. My dog and my Daughter's cockatiel not happy!
    Anyhoo, still been working on restorations. Got 12 underway. And Then...... last night coming home from work in the dark and wet, got caught up in a bingle and me and my motorcycle took the worst of it. No worries - gonna live.
    Just means all blade work has stopped for a couple of weeks as my left shoulder and arm are pretty rooted. Even taking a break fom the razor honing jobs from the Local Shaver Shop and the AKC. That's gonna help the reputation.
    Seems there is always something slowing me down. Anyhoo, still around and will get back to it all as soon as i am able.
    Also on a week's leave {yeah-great school holiday} so will be a bit sporadic on the forum.
    Just keeping my cobbers looped in.

    Glad to hear you are still in one piece.
    An explanation to the local shop so they can pass the word on from the front side and not handing out excuses after the fact should cover you.
    Any way rest up and mend well.
    It is just Whisker Whacking
    Relax and Enjoy!

    Been there done that, same arm. Broken collarbone,dislocated elbow., Smith's fracture requiring pin&plate. No excuse to stop honing unless your left handed.
    Wish you a quick recovery. I know how it sucks.

    Can understand. Had a, luckily, minor scooter accident a month ago. Car pulled out right in front of me to make a left. Had to put the bike down. Road burn, broken toes, bike suffered the worst.
    Good luck healing!

    Hi Adam,

    that's a bit of bad luck mate, hope your shoulder's not too bad. Get some physio if you can, it can really help.

    all the best

    Mike
