Paging those who've injured themselves...

Why gay? The word is simply a synonym for screw, ****, shag, etc.

 

It is?

Well roger me. I always thought it was exclusively buggerage.

Roger and out?

Pass that man a beer.

 

Bet he can't neck it.

 

It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the

My neck now makes interesting creaking noises and I have a bit of
restricted movement because I overlooked the damage to it at the time of
my last shoulder breakage; being in pain from the main injury, it seemed
nothing at the time.

I was thinking of giving him a hearty slap on the back, but he'd
probably get whiplash and sue me.

 

Oh no we haven't.

I was offered physio for my shoulder once it healed, but it never
appeared and I never chased it up; by that time I was back at work and
everything seemed fine. Too late then, anyway.

I've given myself minor whiplash on a number of occasions. I think it counts
as whiplash wherever you get it, not just on your neck. The times I can
remember off the top of my head are: spinal whiplash while windsurfing
(catapult fall, let go of the boom, but stayed attached by my harness -
twang), and neck whiplash from a few big tumbles while snowboarding
(normally from tripping my heel edge while wearing a rucsack).

Doesn't generally hurt that much at the time, but the following day it felt
like I'd seriously overdone weight training at the gym - muscles feel
bruised and swollen, and have very little strength in them. I find massaging
in ibuprofen gel to be pretty effective.

 

No emotion in it - flat calm, old bean.

However, you appear to value your time over potential paralysis which,
IMO, is a bit off centre.

Excellent.


Although you now have to live with your conscience over killing a
perfectly good thread without once mentioning Des.

 

Been to physio - it's a mild whiplash.

No break, no drama.

 

Okay - you hadn't, anyway, yours would have been more of a coal wagon I
would have thought.

 

My god - a useful reply!

Thanks - will try the ibu gel.
