Gutted

Post by **fume** » 19 Dec 2007 11:52 am

Just been told that I am not allowed to drive for at least 12 months whilst I have brain scans and various other tests for a form of epilepsy. I am totally gutted as I now have to be driven everywhere.

I am not going to sell the 300s though however much pressure I get, in fact I think I have found a garage to store my 1.4 in. I will get my missus to use it from time to time to keep it going, not that she knows it yet!

I'm so sorry. That sucks big time. Hope it all works out well for you.

as Gavin said , things like this suck .

a lot of people say I shouldent be allowed to drive but thats another story ,

I remember Pete had a spell of this sort of thing and he came through ok

keep your chin up and dont be a stranger just because your not driving
we will all be thinking of you and praying things get sorted

look after yourself

I'm sorry about that mate! Don't go thinking the worst though, I'm sure it's just a precaution the doctors have to take to cover their backs.

You'll be back behind the wheel before you know it, and enjoy it all the more

I know several people who are in the same position mate, both my housemate and my gf are in/have had the same. Just think of the pennies you are saving on fuel, and you'll be able to restore that redline

. 12 months will go a lot quicker than you think, although I know that isn't much use now.

Sorry to hear this, lets hope everything goes well and you'll soon be driving again, I can only imagine how gutting it must be.

As Chris says, always look on the bright side

Sorry to hear that mate, it is a proper PITA, but does your legs good in the meantime. Use it as a time to do the work on the Redline like others have said, and it'll give you something to look forward to! Amazingly it will pass by fairly quickly, hope things turn out well for you.

Thanks guys, the Redline's not going to know whats hit it!. It's just so annoying as 99% of the time i feel fine, but as my mother in law keeps telling me there's nothing you can do about it so get on with it,- tough love or what!!!.

Happy Christmas
