Remember after an injury No:
H - Heat
A - Alcohol
R - Rubbing
M - Movement

Treat it like a Blue Light disco disco, blokes up against the wall just moving side to side heads moving in time to the music looking for a "stray to cut from the herd". No?

There's no shame in it!

Going back over this thread and reading some of the stuff is so good.. great to remember when times were simpler and more fun - so many little memories that shaped childhood, that honestly probably taken for granted and I feel like it's lost these days.

It's funny too, so much stuff you seem to forget, but then you read these pages it's like oh shit yeah I remember that / doing that etc.. like a core memory coming back. :lol:
