Default One last kick in the A** from 2008.

The plan, stay in nice quiet evening by myself, nice bottle of single malt, no drama.

well that was the plan............................( and this is where you really couldn't make this sh*t up)

though I'd put the bike up the front off the road, turned it around in the road as it was facing the wrong way, front wheel kicked out on me, don't know why, haven't looked, went down hard.

Skinned my right Elbow (you know the type that really hurts but no real damage), dislocated my right shoulder (it's been done before and is a weakness) may have broken something but can't tell yet, smacked my right knee, and gashed my left ankle, all at perhaps 5 mph, you just wouldn't believe it.............

so I sit here with a blood soaked sock, shoulder that feels like it's been club hammered, and generally in my own world of agony.

Thanks 2008, now sod off.
