Been in Hospital and allowed out whilst awaiting test results unsure.gif Dr's this morning and been signed off for 2 weeks. Shit really as not getting sick pay.
Nothing broken but I get very tired fast and weight loss, I can do basic things.

So! I want bike/garage stuff to do.

Add to my list

Replace plugs, Iridium ordered today

MOT, next week, cant hold the bike up yet

Declutter garage, old paint tins etc

Post 4 items

Sort out Tool Chest, its nearly 6ft high

Sell stuff. Got screens, bits clothing helmets that I dont need

Paint floor

Stop avoiding that bloody chain

whatever you do, don't lurk forums all day and make posts that reflect your current mood.
You''l make yourself look a proper Erny..... ahem cuckoo.gif

sorry to hear your not too clever though buddy.
This being on the sick lark is ok, but Bejebus it gets boring.
I've been playing a lot of Counter-strike... a bit like call of duty but for the pc.
And cooking, lamb dishes mainly, greek styley
I need a sig. indeed with plenty of frickin polish

I had 5 months off work last year and got so bored I kind of lost the will to bother doing many of the quite large list of things I could have been doing around the house/garden/garage, so I reckon it's well worth getting stuck in your list of stuff to keep the mind occupied.

1992 Mk1, 76k miles, Hagon springs, MTC exhaust, 4½ gears Gone now :(
2009 900 abs, 42k miles, Yamaha heated grips, double bubble screen, R&G crash bungs, scottoiler, Autocom, 1500 lumen LED spotlights.

“
Bite my lip and close my eyes

Take me away to paradise

I'm so damn bored, I'm goin' blind

And loneliness has to suffice

Bite my lip and close my eyes

I'm trippin' away to paradise

Some say quit, or I'll go blind

But it's just a myth

my bike is starting to look like a project. Just saying... wink.gif

no, i've been off over a year with professional burnout. The thought of going back to work just filled me with dread. But not working has done some damage as well. I need to find another career really, but that sounds daft at my age. At least i can loaf around now for 6 weeks without the guilt.

Hope you sort your health problems out.

Thanks for the comment muddy,

Had Jaundice which is now slowly going, Can't stop itching, irritating is not the right word.
I've got some sort of Liver or Pancreas malfunction. No, don't drink (anymore), or do hookers or drugs.
Wiped me out though. Awaiting biopsy results to give me a clue. There now, you all share my medical file. rolleyes.gif

Good day today, moved bed around, washed everything, Even washed the dog. Honest.
Sorting the garage out, throwing anything out that has dust on it. Capt Ruthless I am.
And I have more stuff to sell, just cant get up to do it.
