June the 9th 2025, my life was changed forever, & not in a nice way.
On the way home from work on my motor bike, I was crossing a junction on a green light, when Bang a drink driver jumped his red light & hit me.
My right ankle & foot was torn off. My left ankle was crushed together with my left knee & left elbow.
As the car ran over me, my crash helmet smashed into four, which shattered my left eye socket & entered my skull causing major brain trauma.
Right hip was broken, together with L3 & L4 of my spine. I was Air lighted to hospital & due to the amount of blood I had lost, my heart stopped 7 times.
I spent 8 weeks in ICU & a total of 7 months in hospital. I had to learn how to speak again.
Read again. type again. I have learned to drink, eat & feed myself again.
Wash & shower myself again. Knowing when to go to toilet 😂That was hard.
I have learned to walk again with a prosthetic leg, can't run yet but trying.
Went back to work on light duties, nope not for me ! Got straight back into it full bore. (Since have made me retire)
People have often asked me, "Why Im So Full Of Life & Happy" Simple Answer.
Im a live & happy for that. To many people do not get a second chance.
Yes I have wobbled afew times in my faith & trusting people.
My mission in life is to stay happy & make as many people around me as happy as possible. PMA.
RESTORE BRITAIN or DIE TRYING !!!

@japan_nobunaga I'm from the UK and am now following you. I'm jealous and envious. Our once great country was similar. But then things changed

To those thinking of moving to Japan,
let me be honest with you.
On the train, we don't talk on the phone.
In a quiet street, we don't shout.
At a restaurant, we wait in line — even when no one is watching.
We bow to strangers.
We pay before we receive.
We apologize before we explain.
These aren't rules. There's no law for any of them.
They are just 1,500 years of small daily promises
we keep, without being asked.
If you can love that, you will love Japan.
And Japan will love you back.
If you can't, please — think it through carefully.
For your sake, and ours. 🇯🇵

If you love Japan, let’s connect.

Last night at County I wore his scarf for the first time in ages.
I’ll wear it at Wembley this time for the play off final.
He’d have loved these last few years and I wish he’d have seen them.
Fuck, I miss him.

On this day 41 years ago, 54 Bradford City supporters and two Lincoln City supporters went to a football match and never returned home.
We will never forget those who sadly lost their lives, and as always, our thoughts are with their families and the hundreds still affected by the disaster to this day.
Always in our hearts. 🎗️

CONGRATULATIONS TO ENGLAND.
It is pointing in a good and necessary direction for a country that for years has suffered under politicians who ignored the voice of the people.
Here is what happened yesterday in the local elections.
Reform UK - a party that barely existed a few years ago - became England’s largest local party in a single election night.
They took 1,428 seats. Labour lost 1,375 seats. The Conservatives lost 552. Reform got 27% of the vote nationally. Labour only 15%.
This is not just a local election. It is a political earthquake.
And in Great Yarmouth in Norfolk something even more remarkable happened.
@RupertLowe10 - a former politician who broke with his party and started his own - stood with local candidates. His team won all 10 council seats they stood for. All ten. By large margins.
One of the newly elected said it simply and precisely: “People are furious. They do not feel represented. They do not feel that politicians reflect what they themselves think and experience in everyday life.”
This is the same signal we are seeing all across Europe right now.
People are tired. They have run out of patience with politicians who for decades have ignored them and called them racists for saying what they see with their own eyes every single day.
England has paid a high price for not listening. Attacks. Grooming scandals. Rapes. Neighbourhoods where the police do not dare go. Synagogues with military guards.
But now the people are speaking.
And how glad I am on their behalf.❤️🔥✝️🇬🇧🪽

Do not let them reformat your memory.
“Who stormed Berlin? The Americans, perhaps? The British? The French? We lost one million one hundred thousand people at Stalingrad alone. How many did Great Britain lose? 400,000? Less than half a million for the United States as well. 75-80% of the Wehrmacht’s total strength was destroyed by the Red Army of the Soviet Union. Have you completely forgotten that, or what?” — President Putin
