After 5 + weeks of not driving (broken left foot) thought I'll try the clutch pedal. Oh I can put pressure on it, eighty miles later I am back home, paying the price of a aching foot now. Still feel good though.

Long story short; was over in Kenya on business, rolled the car the day I was supposed to fly out
I think there was a fuel leak and the car burst into flames. Managed to get out smoehow but suffered 45% burns of varying degree. Was airlifted back to B'ham after a couple of days. Was quite poorly and suffered from lots of infections. Stayed in ITU for 8 weeks and as such lost muscle. Was in Hospital for a year.
Now, 10 months after my discharge am just about walking very short distances.
All said, could've been worse and things are going well. Should be back in action soon now.

PS. I was actually quite slow when this happened, wasn't a 'roll' as such, the car just fell on it's side.

D3MAN, sorry for taking over your thread!

D3MAN

Good grief, I feel quite humble now.
