Thank you for all the support in 2013 readers thank you I’ll be back blogging in 2014.

Watch this space  :-)

Yes!Yes!Yes!

I got my Octane wheelchair (my Betty) back rolling today I'm happy. :-)  It was meant to get done yesterday but the postman didn't deliver the new inner tube till 3.30pm, so we go it done today. I am back rolling effortlessly and loving it. :-)

Fingers crossed it's not raining to night i am going to go down town to watch my friends band Rock Out on the Christmas stage we have in town.  Voodoo Vegas they are called and man do they Rock! \m/

If you live in Bournemouth come on down for some Voodoo Vegas play some new songs, old classic's, and even some Christmas songs. Who knows we might even break out some Christmas jumpers. 8.30pm-10.00pm

A Bad and Good Day Today

It’s a bad and good day for me today, as I am back using my old wheelchair. My new lightweight chair (Betty) has a flat tyre, and it is a complete mystery to how.  Because 1. I have puncture resistant tyres and 2. I have not left my bungalow. I think the inner tube may have popped on the inside, as I tried to pump it up, and you could hear the air coming out. 

I phoned RGK up this morning and explained it all to the lady on the phone, and they are sending out a replacement inner tube today, and it should be here by tomorrow.

After I got off the phone and rolled into the front room, on the radio came Nothing Else Matters by Metallica, so I am taking that as a sign that everything is going to be alright.  Fingers crossed tomorrow the inner tube comes and we can get Betty back rolling.

On a more positive note

My cousin came round today and help me rig up my new energenie 4 way radio controlled extension lead, so I no longer have to switch my gadgets off at the wall I will now be able to do it from my bed with the remote.  Like the lazy person I am (hahaha) no but having FA there is nothing worse than having to get up and out of bed when you are comfy, I should add when you don’t need to. It’s a huge pain in the arse, a massive thank you goes out to Julia Hardy for letting me know about the energenie extension lead and to my cousin Marco for helping me rig it up, I was the brains and he was my muscles. (the picture below is the energenie extension)

I am almost at 2000 page views on my blog thank you to everybody who reads it and for the support much love and thank you.

Because I’m on Top of the World

Because I’m on top of the world, I’m on top of the world, waiting on this for a while now.

Because to I became a proud owner of a RGK Octane wheelchair. (The wheelchair I have only been dreaming about owning for years) Today that dream became reality, and I am over the moon with happiness. 

Getting a new wheelchair is just like getting a new bike, car or horse everything becomes new and it takes time to adjust and break it in. I have only been rolling around my bungalow so far and already everything is just so effortless, it’s amazing I am in love.

My wheelchair is a she of course and I have decided to name her Betty. (After the 1977 classic Ram Jam song Black Betty) and oh man is she lightweight, when i’m not in the chair I can lift Betty with one hand. It’s crazy light and that is because she is made from 9th grade titanium and carbon fiber. Betty is all sexy black matt paint, apart from the wheels she as a bit of red paint on the tips of the spokes, looks amazing her style fits perfect to me, as Dan said to me the guy from RGK this wheelchair was custom built for me.

I am so very happy right now I can’t stop smiling, a massive thank you goes out to my Nan and Granddad and my Family for the help and support they have given me to get my Octane named Betty.
