    I live in Northampton so a bit a way a way,and had enough of brains at the mo lol

  • Blimey, that's some scar. When I clicked on the link I thought I was going to see your Gazelle. Can i ask what's been wrong with you?

  • hope it is all a success, and heals well

    would be interested to know what has happened

  • Sorry bit late on replying.Brain tumours the culprit.Going to lose my driving licence for 12 months aswell.Ah well no more tax,insurance,fuel and mots lol.Good excuse for buying another bike me thinks!

  • yeah treat yourself! looks like quite something to go through

    hope it all heals up well!

  • Heal fast! And new bike, woo!

  • Jeebus that's a fair scar, well at least you've got a good strong hairline, I'm receding at a fair old rate so soon mine (accident related, not operation..) will be on show which I'm a little uncomfortable with.

    Hope you're all clear, heal up soon, HTFU etc.

    I can't make out in the 2nd photo, looks like they're from different occasions, did they staple before but stitch this time?

    The stapled one was the 1st op,this time blue sutures.I was suprised when they took the bandage off cause i was expecting staples again.The sutures are coming out tomorrow which'll be nice.

  • hope you make a full recovery

  • Get well, Gary.

    Get in touch if you need hair (and are into Death Metal, because it's the only type my wife has in stock) :-)

  • A few years ago I saw a programme on tv regards these awake brain ops. Looked a bit mad...with the nurse asking questions and as soon as the answers didn't make us much sense as they should have, they stopped operating.

    All the best in your recovery.

    I wish BBC had the same policy
