those who were around when i was looking for a band name a few weeks ago by they way....problem solved.

"The Evora"

Drop the 'The' and you're on to a winner. 'The' bands are too cliche nowadays.

Just a heads up. This thread will soon be closed and a new one started with the rules outlined clearly in the first post because there is obviously some confusion over what is and isn't OK with some posters.

I'm thinking between post 12,000 or post 12,500.

This has been a public service announcement.

I like good music but is wrong to think Katy Perrys new song is catchy, so confused am I.

Its the worst thing in the whole, liking this music, and you find yourself humming it then you know your doomed.

If there is some reason you want to know personal information about me or my family, ask, if you post it in a forum, I will ask for a site ban. - GY

Dammit. Every time I log on to this thing I just miss some juicy danger post by seconds. I'm in the dark about most of the scandolous behaviour in here because of it.

it seems i missed all the fun last night


**shakes fist at UPC/NTL - where is my broadband you ******

eZe^

Ahh, hard day at the lab today, spent an hour trying to sort out what was wrong with out circuit but it turns out the technician didn't wire a piece of the apparatus properly. He didn't even apologise. FFS. Nice to be welcomed by the OTT when I returned though.


So how's everyones evening going/ gone?

Evenin girls, my 5 a side got well and truly banjaxed. The court was ridiculous, it was as if someone put grease on it and everyone was all over the place. Anyway I ended up goin over bad on my ankle and can barely walk now. Supposed to be out on the proper lash tomorrow too which is gonna be a load of b0ll0x if I can't walk! :mad:


What did they offer us for compensation? A "free" game next week....ie the money we paid this week carries over. Fckin idiots.

Couldn't watch in work earlier but that is literally one of my most used expressions! I don't think I've pronounced "gym" properly in about 5 years!

Bravo!

That's balls dude. I feel your pain. I finally hung up me boots a month or so ago.

Thanks dude, i'm p1ssed off cos I got snowboarding lessons for my birthday and this means that at the very least, break or no break, for the next few weeks no Muay-Thai, no jiu Jitsu, no soccer and no snowboarding maybe I'll use the time to hit the gym and work on the guns!! :P

Yea my mate broke his leg before and I saw him out one night with the crutches and cast! I'm meant to be out tonight so should be interesting!


Hope they give me one of those removable casts if it is a break cos then I can drive!

DeadSkin

Yup, been on the beer with crutches. Best thing is, when it's your round just give the cash to a mate and they go to the bar

Fun things may happen if you mix the pain relief and the alcomohol
Would Muay thai be out for a little longer than jui Jitsu?
I would try to do some more swimming.Might be a bit better for the muscles. Need to get gym membership soon just don't have moneys atm.

Is boards working for you all properly now?

Yes i know, been there!

Yea for Muay-Thai i would only be able to do anything when I'm fully healed. you base your weight on your feet/kankles so much that it would be stupid to train injured.

Same pretty much goes for the others to be honest but Thai would be extra cos there's a likelihood of it getting hit.

Yea I'm in a gym (guy-m) already so i'll just start doing loads of upper body work or somethin! Wheter or not I swim I guess will depend on whether I get a cast, a removable cast or just lettin it heal. But I'd be doing the no kicking swim!

not really, still a hoopload of DB errors.

I literally feel your pain! I was a party at my mates on Halloween night and fell over. Now, i was locked and i don't remember this, but i am reliably formed that i slipped on a wet patch in the kitchen.
It was only when i was leaving the next morning that i noticed my foot was sore. Spent the entire weekend in bed as i was in drunken bits, went to work on Monday limping badly. By the Wednesday, i'd had enough and had to get it checked out as the swelling and bruising wasn't going down.
Turns out i fractured my fibula and done my ligaments. Had to wear a temporary cast until the swelling went down, and got a proper one on last night. Doctor said that might need an op with screws inserted and that, but upon looking at the new x-ray, the bones are still in place so probably don't need one. Thank God.
Being on crutches is such a hassle though. I'm bloody knackered, but it's good upper body strength building.
Not going out drinking on crutches though, i really couldn't be bothered with all the hassle. I think i'll take this opportunity to lay off the alcohol and wait until i'm walking again, give my liver a break. Haven't drank in two weeks. I'm taking each day as it comes really.

Just home now. Foots not broken but he says that a combination of bruised bone and damage to the muscles in my foot (same one that goes when ya get a foot cramp apparently - can't remember the name of it) is why its so hard to walk. I'm strappius maximus now though so that + nurofen + alcohol and hopefully I may even make it out without the crutches. :pac:

Otherwise I'll have to convince bouncers that my metal pointy stick thingy is purely to compensate :eek:
