New sponsor

Despite not actually doing any motorsport at all at present I have managed to secure another personal sponsor (at this rate I'll have to invest in a new racesuit!!). German Cars Blog {link} have kindly offered to pay for my on event expenses!

As the name suggests the German Car Blog covers everything about German car manufacturers and tuners. They have even threatened to add a little coverage of my exploits when I finally make it back onto the stages!

Walking freely.

I'm now walking without an help amnd undergoing intensive physio to get as much function back into my knee/leg as possible. My latest activities are certainly helping with exercise that's for sure!! Follow the link to my other blog to see just what I now own!

Now that I'm pretty much fully mobile I can now start to plan a start to my 2009 season. There are a few ideas and offers floating about at the moment and once I've completed a few more visits to hospital to see my surgeon and physio I'll concentrate on getting back into rally cars. Until then I'll keep walking to and from my shed.....

Of snow and things.....

Finally after lots of reading, internet surfing and question asking I'm ready to start my new pastime. What is it? Well you'll have to wait another 18-19 days to find out. (The time scale gives a clue.....) Ideally I would have liked to have been a lot further down the line already but snow and slower than required deliveries have held me back ~ a broken leg (now on the mend) hasn't helped either.


The snow here has been up to 12½cms deep and has caused a fair bit of chaos, ironically today's snow was a lot less but had a far greater impact than the snow of Sunday/Monday. having lived in a snowy Berlin and a very snowy Regensburg the chaos and disruption caused by the white stuff here is almost beyond belief! I'm pretty astonished that Transport for London gave up on their job and cancelled all buses on Monday ~ a job well done there!

Less rallying, more strange stuff!

Thanks to my fractured leg I'm not going to be rallying for quite sometime so I've got to come up with other things to do instead. Some are pretty normal (play computer & Playstation games, surf the 'net, Facebook and MySpace) but others are a little stranger and aimed at forwarding EWR into an area of motorsport I've wanted to try for a while.
More information to follow...............

A couple of clues:-

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Another set back.....

On the 22nd November 2008 I managed to slip and fracture both my tibia and fibula bones in my left leg. One month down the line and I still can't put any weight on my leg, nor will I be able to for months to come.
Current recovery time is expected to be between 3 and 5 months for a full recovery, although I expect to be fit enough to rally within 2 months (all being well).
Once again my main mode of transport for Christmas and New Year will be crutches.....

I'd like to thank Diana, Mark, my Mother and Father for all their help over the last few weeks, hopefully my recovery will be swift!
