USA Trip

- August 29, 2024

Its been a while since my last post, just over a year. Not much has happened, had my shoulder operation in September 23 so only really started going back out this spring, have been getting quite fit with all the pushing. So I am ready for my trip. I am going for 8 weeks, will be staying with Nick for a while as he has a road trip planed of 6 days in his truck, so looking forward to that. I pick up my car on the 9th sept then will leave Nicks on the 10th sept and head to Erin, about a 3 day drive, will stay there a few weeks (not sure how many). When i leave there i am going to SpaceX, it's a 5/6 day drive. really looking forward to seeing there even if its just a drive past then the drive back to Nicks which will take about 5/6 days Then chill out at Nicks until the 4th Nov for my flight home. This is the min time it will take to get to places, but I expect I will get side tracked, well I hope I do. Sunday 8 th Pick up car from Sarasota airport after 2pm. Monday 9 th H...

Men, get it Checked

- August 14, 2021

Several days ago I had to have a blood test to rule out things to do with my tummy problems was all good apart from raised PSA levels so the nurse wanted me to see the Male Dr to have my prostrate examined. This is what puts most men off having there prostate examined and I can understand why, but if I had not had that procedure i would not know about the lump i have on my prostrate. At the moment i don't know if it's cancer or not, the chances are that it is as my dad had it. If its not then great, keep on getting fit for my USA trip..😀 If it turns out to be cancer then I am in a good place mentally and physically to deal with it. Nothing is stopping my road trip next year. Doing a mini road trip to Wales next weekend...😀

Mick: Hi my name is Mick, I am a Christian and was baptised in September 2010. I am 58 years old and have been in an active wheelchair (Quickie Argon) since June 2014. Prior to that I used crutches for several years and then a normal wheelchair, which I could not self-propel very far, in order to get around. This was due to limited use of my legs from a spinal injury and operation I had 40 years ago. Getting an active wheelchair changed my life; up until then I had very little independence, was not able to exercise and life was pretty miserable. But the last year has seen a big difference; I have a lot more independence now and I’ve been slowly building up my exercise routine (and my muscles) so that I am about ready to start doing challenges in my wheelchair to raise money for charities.
