The old body threw a bit of a wobbly on Saturday and for the first time in my life I was whisked off in an ambulance.  Anyway a lot of nice people at Kettering A & E got me tested, diagnosed and reasonably sorted out and we were back home by midnight.  The downside is however that I`m not allowed to drive for four weeks! So much for the Easter RTV I`ve been looking forward to for so long.  I dont think I`ve gone four weeks without driving since I started learning, and that was in the mid 60`s, ah well roll on the 16th April.

On the positive side - lots of time to get those jobs on your vehicle sorted, for when you can drive it again!

Get well soon, take it easy. :wink:

Been there and done that mate.
I couldn't drive last year from March until May. It's when you realise how much you do use your vehicle and you've lost it at a time when you really need it.

I do hope that things are fine and you're recovering well. I made good use of the time to do a load of work on the Disco. Rebuilding the rear diff and axle. It can have an up side.

Take care.

Get your Niva back, nice nice coil springs. I blame the leaf springs for shaking your insides around. Get better soon :lol:
