Hi all thought it was time I checked in and updated all my fab MV friends on how I'm doing. I have just spent 2 weeks at the police rehab facility having intensive physio on my face and jaw (all the jokes have been done). Also lots of exercise to get my fitness back. Now back at work full time after a week in Devon with my family. I'm doing ok physically and emotionally still getting used to my new life but with family and friends support it's going ok.

No plans at this stage of getting another scooter but have got over the 2 wheel fear and been on my road bike cycled 14 miles the other weekend bloody hard going.

Back to the hospital tomorrow to see the dental team regarding the damage to my teeth.

Hope you are all well and enjoying your riding.

Glad your on the mend, I remember my mate fainting on the parade ground when I was in Notts police, made hell of a mess.

I was just wondering about you today, after seeing Kitty's remodel of Watson's front end. Warm regards sent to you from the overly sunny California.

Rehab/physical therapy makes quite a difference but graduating from it is much better.

Thanks for the update! I'm glad you've got the police facilities - it must help a lot to be among friends for rehab, despite the teasing

Great update, CopECat! Pleased to hear you're making good progress. Fourteen miles on a push bike is nothing to sneeze at -- keep up the good work!
