Had an off?

Hope you are OK.

valheru.bsky.social•29 days ago

I've walked away.....

amarkp.bsky.social•29 days ago

Glad you're otherwise ok. Had the thumb x-rayed yet? Hope it clears up soon.

valheru.bsky.social•28 days ago

Thanks pal, not had it x-rayed, tbh it's moving fine just a bit swollen and stiff. If it gets worse I'll get the peasant wagon to A&E though.

jamie-dixon.co.uk•29 days ago

You ok?

valheru.bsky.social•29 days ago

Mostly, swollen thumb tbh.

jamie-dixon.co.uk•29 days ago

Oh maaaan. That sucks. What happened? I didn't see anything on your TL about an accident. Hope you recover swiftly mate.

valheru.bsky.social•28 days ago

Tbh I kept in quiet yesterday for a couple of reasons and just ate cake in the office.

jamie-dixon.co.uk•28 days ago

Legit. Hope you’re alright and recover fast. Cake will definitely help.

valheru.bsky.social•28 days ago

Woke up basically fine except a sore thumb this morning.

zerhackermann.bsky.social•28 days ago

Oi. Been there many times. Wrecked and rebuilt more motorcycles than most have had hot meals. Do not skip the diagnosis and recovery of your hand. I didnt let a wrist heal fully before returning to work years back. Now its pretty fucked.

valheru.bsky.social•28 days ago

I took it easy at work yesterday and today, doing auxiliary stuff ATM. Tbh most of the initial injuries were gone this morning.

zerhackermann.bsky.social•28 days ago

thats good. But take it from an old geezer...let your shit heal properly while you are young. Otherwise it will cost you later.

amarkp.bsky.social•28 days ago

As another old geezer, I second this!

ragnarbelial.bsky.social•28 days ago

👍To that

alister667.bsky.social•28 days ago

Sorry to hear it. Get well soon.

valheru.bsky.social•28 days ago

Thanks bud, tbf bar the thumb I am basically ok now.

joshface.bsky.social•29 days ago

Sounds like an off, hope everything's whole! 🤞

valheru.bsky.social•29 days ago

Bike isn't.

joshface.bsky.social•29 days ago

Oh man, I'm sorry. Been there, well..too many times.

Hope you're back on soon

valheru.bsky.social•28 days ago

Me too

robojo.bsky.social•28 days ago

Sorry to see this, hope you're ok, have a swift and safe recovery.

valheru.bsky.social•28 days ago

The physical stuff is mostly fine tbh, I heal ridiculously quickly.

mreos.bsky.social•29 days ago

Oh mate, I’m so sorry to hear this. Get your hand looked. Hoping it’s just bruising.

the-jamieg.bsky.social•28 days ago

Oh no, so sorry to hear this. Glad you’re “OK”. Sorry about the bike!

valheru.bsky.social•28 days ago

Thanks, me too 😭

stephenpackeruk.bsky.social•29 days ago

Important question, how's the bike?

valheru.bsky.social•29 days ago

Frames bent, so gonna be the end of the road for him 😭

jeffodysseus01.bsky.social•28 days ago

😧
Ahhh mate...

amarkp.bsky.social•29 days ago

That's rough, I'm sorry to hear it. I'm in the middle of dealing with something similar myself (first ever insurance write-off). It's very saddening to part with a bike under those circumstances.

valheru.bsky.social•28 days ago

Ouchies, I'm not looking forward to all the paperwork. Phone partially doesn't work either so all the fun.

amarkp.bsky.social•28 days ago

I was glad to be able to find the receipts for my helmet and jacket and sruff.

valheru.bsky.social•28 days ago

Tbf they are pretty much intact, I need to do a full recce later tonight, but obviously a new helmet is needed.

stephenpackeruk.bsky.social•29 days ago

Ouch. Good luck with the claim.

valheru.bsky.social•28 days ago

Thanks bud

lightweightbluff.bsky.social•29 days ago

Hey. You ok?
