The driver of the ( small ) truck actually reversed over me partially and when I remonstrated with him, gave me a ton of abuse and roared off.
I didn't sign for the injury, no

Or West Ham... /poor me/ though they've shown some good signs of life in the recent past.Could be worse. You could turn into an American Aston Villa fan.

One of the many plights of skinny SOBs is that no one knows when they hit one.
The "full-sized" men on here can at least leave a mark.

Dwight Yorke just had to put two past Ipswich Town's keeper back in 1995 and get on Eurogoals... at least that show kept the roar of "All Juventus All The Time" from Italian media to a dull one while I was at Aviano.blackeagle603 wrote:Or West Ham... /poor me/ though they've shown some good signs of life in the recent past.Could be worse.

Been a hell of a year. Any plans for moving to this side of the pond soon, HS?

Well, all plans are on hold right now. The situation with mom has to be resolved first. I guess I could maybe scrape up half a million US bucks from the sale of her estate, maybe a lot more. I know a tax lawyer who might help me out legally avoiding death duties.
But there isn't anything left here for me, or anywhere else really

Come on over when you are ready. There's still a lot of wide open here where a man can still get lost and find himself. Plus, we have guns!!!
