Opinion Poll

Hello fellow hippies

It is now just five months since my RTHR and I think I'm back to normal. So hands up all you hippies who think, as I do, that, as a reward for my extraordinary courage and being a model patient,  my wife should now allow me to purchase that lovely little classic sports coupé that I've seen for sale (quite cheaply) on the Internet.

Derek  

Lol I'd like to hear your wife's opinion on your model patient status 😉

You should totally be allowed to buy it! Good luck Derek! 😉

Good luck  with the car .  Mick

Man to man, I thnk you have got it all wrong.

You really need to thank your wife for the extraordinary care and patience she has bestowed on you by buying her the classic sports coupé.

*nudge, nudge*

Hmmmm...Could be too close to the ground for comfortably getting in and out???......ian.

I'll certainly try!

Derek

Well, she could use it too!

Derek

Go for it, but drive carefully....!

Vroom, Vroom.........

If I say yes does that mean I can buy one too? Ive always dreamt of owning a Morgan  but apart from the fact its out of my price bracket as Ian says its a bit low to clamber out of - wouldnt mind trying though................

Of course you deserve a big reward. But I suspect that your partner deserves an even bigger one. So ... be careful what you wish for!

Seriosuly - congrats on this milestone. It is good to hear - I go in Feb 19th and appreciate hearing more about the good stories emerging from our growing community. 

Keep the faith and ... DO NOT BREAK  A LEG.

  

Want mine? it needs a lot of TLC, it's in pieces at the moment.

Must get around to restoring it.

 

🙄🙄🙄 does it go against the 90 degree rule??? I want to trade my hubby in for a 25 year old. Would that be ok? 😂

derek54514,

     I know what it makes me if I assume, but I'm assuming all went well with the THR. Great for you and family, another assumption, all will progressively get better (here's to hoping) figured you've already figured on this, or not.  If your surgery cut or damaged a nerve (like mine did) working a clutch will be a problem, an automatic is key for me, my drop foot syndrom or whatever Dr.s call it result of the THR on the left hip left me only able to drive an American, gas with right foot.  Hey not all of us were cut out to be rally , drag or motocross racers. In my dreams I occasionally flew jet fighters. I'm sure with todays microprocessors just about anything money can buy can be done for you. Wish all your dreams come true and do not let anger play ANY part in your life.

Hello dear Derek, 

SO good to hear how well you are doing .... Is your wife named Hazel (Derek's wife)? Good Lord, darling, what she went through with you to get you the surgery is heroic - At some point I thought we were going to lose you .... 

Anyway, knowing her she is a sensible, responsible and loving soul and would like to keep you for a little bit longer - Little red sports car from the Internet ????

I don't think so ...

Big warm hug for both of you

renee

Ha ha ha - that's brilliant. 

How on earth did you get into that? 

Nice car though.

Tell her there are plenty of models to choose from and they start at £3.00! 

pee ess - you only live once! When this is all over we are going travelling. It has made me realise how precious my health is.

Hi Derek, Glad to hear your doing so well,

Maybe you will get a Corgi version lol lol , and maybe if you share with Mrs Derek you will get the bigger one ....
