  3. I have to say that since my stroke my outlook has changed a bit, I would never normally have gone to a BBQ miles away with people I do not know,I would always make an excuse and probably do nothing at home...or go off on my own somewhere, I now realise more than ever that this is not a dress rehearsal this is it....sometimes we or me have to put a bit of effort in and probably be really really grateful afterwards

    Even walking out in leeds city centre I feel grateful for the chance cos I never knew if I would again I just did not know what the future held...two nurses walking me to bathroom a few weeks ago,could hardly speak,struggled brushing my teeth,had a wheelchair (my lifeline),seriously if like I would have done a while ago you are going to be doing pretty well nothing on Saturday on your own possibly...just don't, jump in your car or on your bike, and meet like minded people at the BBQ it will be fun, meet new friends,doors will open as a result but you gotta just make the effort...if I can you can :grinning:

  9. A lad I know from infants has the same mind set as yours, he's not long come out of hospital from multiple brain tumors hes always laughing n joking and staying positive... As for attending, like you know I don't know anyone i'll probably keep to myself after the first introduction, a reason to go its just some where different to go... But have a 12 hr shift before that
     
  10. Fair play to him, don't keep yourself to yourself talk to people..you will have common ground and you will feel better for yapping, we all have that thing in common (bikes)I'm so much a loner type but you know what this illness has made me think differently, maybe siege mentality, plenty time to keep ourselves to ourselves and I will whenever, but this is a great chance to mingle, me and you will leave with something beneficial gauranteed, I'm 49 not oldy worldly wise,not the brightest,not achieved a lot, and had a poxy stroke of all things...but life is what we make it...you will sleep well after be good to meet ye :grinning:

  19. No....when most of the people have arrived,you'll all have to stand up,and introduce yourself.....who you are,where you're from,what bike you have,etc., We'll try and make a big circle :Happy::Hilarious:eek:_O
