:O What happened to your neck/head/back? Sounds pretty serious!

I got hit from trying to stop a fight before it happened, landed on my head on the road out front my best friends house at his party, the really lame thing is it was his older brother who hit me. I could of defended myself and regret that I didn't but was not trying to fight as it was my friends brother (which I knew well along with his mother) some people and alcohol is a really bad mix.

If I could repeat that night again I wouldn't be in the situation I am now. Lost some good friends from doing the right thing as the police didn't want me to have contact with them for obvious reasons. I ended up with a really bad concussion, Dr's said was lucky that I didn't die over night at home. Was in pain for months and months after and still am now (especially from lying on the back of my head for to long), had dizziness for weeks after it happened and still get it sometimes. Also ended up with torn nerves from my brain to nose so completely lost my sense of smell, didn't realize until 2 weeks after it happened.

OMG Steve You're right, some people and alcohol really don't mix. What a terrible situation for you, are you getting any ongoing care/assistance at all? I'm so sorry to hear this

Way too many to remember. With work, the most obscure place I've been to is Iceland, but nowadays it's mainly Asia and Canada. My company has instrumentation at Davis Station in the Antarctic, would love to visit there! For holidays I'd love to visit Alaska in the winter. Just about to fill my 2nd passport in 5 years.

is there such a thing? No, seriously, I quite like cleaning the kitchen.

Gardening. I think I'm allergic to it, but not in the same way as Steve

OMG I MARRIED THE WRONG MAN!!!

Oh, hang on, I take that back...

[daviescr]

Well, My wife didn't marry me for my money

I know, shame on me. I love a good garden, but just don't have the skills or desire to work it. I'd happily pay someone to do it if I could afford it!

[Rivergirl]

So what's the best Indian in Melbourne Chris, I'm crazy about Indian. My husband is going away for a few weeks so I go to the local Indian and buy a stack of dishes that I live on for 4 days lunch and dinner

[Rivergirl]

That's so terrible Steve, I'm so sorry to hear this. My thoughts are with you . It really sucks when you are trying to do the right thing and something like this happens.

But Robyn, what about breakfast??

I have two regulars that I visit - depend how far you want to go... If you like really spicey, you have to push both places to get what you want!

Closest to you is Handi - close to the corner of Boronia Rd and Canterbury Rd's, just opposite 7-11. Be prepared for a wait, but their Naan is awesome.

Equally as good is Bhoj in Templestowe (Shop 14 Level 2 114-116 James St Templestowe.)

Hmmm, this got me wanting!

Enjoy

Chris

[Rivergirl]

Never had it for breakfast Handi would be closest for me. I must try it some time. Thanks so much. Btw if you are ever over in Mornington, Mornington Masala has fantastic curry. I love it!

It's ok, do you do ovens? Stove tops?

[daviescr]

Stoves and oven tops? I wish, could do with a new one myself!

Duhhhh! sorry Lily, Working on just 3 hrs sleep today, so didn't get what you were saying there So, yes, I get a bit fanatical with the appliances in the kitchen. Been known to use a toothbrush to clean those 'hard to reach' spots

[Lily]

*Lily swoons*

You are forgiven, shining prince of the kitchen

[daviescr]

Haha the missus just fell of the sofa. Never been called that before more like Mr OCD

[Lily]

LOL! Apologies to your lovely wife, hope the bruises heal quickly for her

Anyway, back to the questions at hand, any other takers?

[AUS_Twisted]

OMG Steve You're right, some people and alcohol really don't mix. What a terrible situation for you, are you getting any ongoing care/assistance at all? I'm so sorry to hear this

At the moment no, if it wasn't for my parents support I'd be in trouble. The whole thing has cost us a lot of $$, having scans, seeing Doctors and Specialists etc etc. I got to the point where I had enough of it all, tried to move on with other things but it's tough sometimes.

That's so terrible Steve, I'm so sorry to hear this. My thoughts are with you . It really sucks when you are trying to do the right thing and something like this happens.

Yeah , thanks for the kind message though
