Title: Pontypridd Rally
Post by: Neil on May 11, 2012, 10:38:06 AM
Unfortunately guys I will no longer be able to make this Rally, as I have torn my Achilles Tendon following football on Wednesday. I have never felt a pain like it and detecting would just be asking for trouble.

The rally is still going ahead as planned, and please see Geoff (Proconsol) or Kev (Casa Dos) for photos of your finds.

Gutted I am not joining you as I was really looking forward to catching up with you all. Have a great day out.

See you soon
Neil

Sorry to hear that Neil :(    I guess it confirms that physical exercise isn't good for your health... LOL!

Hope you make a quick recovery, you must be gutted :(  

See you at the next one hopefully...

Just looked it up, says up to 1 year for full recovery for athletes  :o :o   Hope you'll be able to get into the fields well before that !

Its Terrible getting Old mate ;) Sorry to hear that Neil.
Unfortunately I'm falling to bits too!, I'm suffering with my knees and after last weeks adventure with the Scan Club,I'm stuffed.
I was hoping to be O.K. for tomorrow but I'm not up to it, so could you remove me from the list please, sorry for the short notice but i was really hoping to make this, especially as its only up the road from me :'(
Good luck to all that go, the weathers looking good.

Ouch dude, was it an extreme form of football or just old age creeping insidiously up upon ye?  ;) ;) Mark tore something kickboxing the other week and he couldn't walk properly for a few days but was ok after that so I'm sure you will recover soon.

Had a most enjoyable morning session at the Ponty rally, got a bit of a tan, and very little else, met some nice guys etc, a big thank you to Mike and D.W. looking forward to the next rally!

You've got my sympathy mate, did mine a few years ago, it healed eventually but took a while. My advice take it easy, even when it feels like it's on the mend :(

Oh no Neil,gutted for you mate.I know myself It does hurt like hell  :(
As everyone else has said, just take it easy and try not to let it all frustrate you too much,easier said than done I know  :-\
Being as you're a fit fella it should heal quicker if that's any consolation.Keep us updated.All the best mate.

Visited my first DW rally today. Didn't find much but had a really enjoyable day. The weather was great and the views were stunning from up the top. Winning a digital radio in the token raffle was also a bonus.

I have been on quite a few rallies over the years and sadly you always get holes that are not filled in, those that are a left in a mess, and the rubbish either left in the holes or discarded on the surface. There was not one instance of that today which is refreshing. All those in attendance today were a credit to the hobby.I look forward to my next DW rally.
