Well that was (almost) the best feelin ever!

Since my spot of tarmac surfing on 17/10/08 I haven’t had a shower, due to the prescence of multiple wounds on my right leg and chest - as well as my stump, so I’ve had to rely on my good wife Wendy to assist me by washing my hair with a jug of water over the side of the bath, and a careful wash with a wet flannel…

Well, today I had a shower! Best feeling in the world, I never thought a simple thing like that would bring so much pleasure! I still needed help to wash under my stump, but it was one step closer to independence!

I just felt the need to tell the world!

Well done mate, another move in the right direction. Good stuff.

Well done mate!! merry xmas!!:slight_smile:

Nice one John;)

I’m just glad you posted this now rather than before the Xmas Bash ;):smiley:

This is good news. Hopefully full independence won’t seem too far away now.

I hope that time comes soon. I wish you all the best with your continued recovery.

I’m really glad to hear you’re on your way to independence.

Merry Xmas :slight_smile:

Nice one mate, every step makes the journey :slight_smile:

Well done John - mind you, we did wonder what that odd whiff was at the party:w00t:

its a youth thing tim :D:D:D hehe

Best Xmas present you could have

That wasn’t an “odd whiff” that was the smell of honest toil, the odour of the working classes :smiley:

Besides I had Wendy sniff my armpits prior to leaving to make sure I wasn’t humming

Wasn’t quite half an hour, I have young kids and I’m not allowed half an hour to do anything :smiley:

But I did make some happy noises :slight_smile:

Missed you at the party, but wanted to say I’m happy to hear you’re making progress in getting your independence back.

It’s good to hear.

Have a good Christmas :slight_smile:

Quote of the year? Well done mate.

It’s at times like these that you realise that it’s the simple things in life like being able to shower that are the most precious. Nice one. :slight_smile:
