    A truly horrendous day

    Hi all just got back from taking my boss to Harrods to have her hair done.


    I was parked at the side of the road in my usual parking place when a woman opposite opened her car door as a motorcyclist was riding past, nearly cut his leg off so (don't know much but I am a trained first aider or was 3 years ago) I spent ten mins with my fist in his groin to stop the bleeding till the ambulance arrived. It was gory but the worst thing was the female car driver was in hysterics the whole time, it may seem callous but I did my best to ingore her and reassure pete he was more concerned about her, I could quite happily gagged her if my hands wernt busy doing other things, I actually feel quite sick now I'm home. This all happened about 1:30 this afternoon.

    Well done Ken, let's hope the Florence Nightingale in you has done the biker a huge favour, have yourself a rewarding beer or 10 .

      Jeez Ken, that is a bad day, but what ever you may feel now-THANK HEAVENS-you were there to assist, nice one mate.


      As for the women, she may have been hysterical and upset but I would have told her to 'SHUT THE F UP!'


      Take it easy mate and have a drink and try and chill-you did a good thing mate, many would just gawp.


      SMF ARE PROUD OF YOU MATE!

        Doing that as we speak, don't want to blow my own trumpet but the paramedic siad I had done a Stirling job and probably stopped him bleeding to death.

          Good you were able to offer first aid. Have a beer and get your head together again.

                        I have a motorbike and sadly things like this happen way to often it's just people's ignorance of bikes in general. If the woman who opened the door had just bothered to to look in the mirror 1st.Lets hope your good work pays off and the biker makes a full recovery. I drive a bus all day and people often open doors and walk out in front of my bus so bikers don't really stand much of a chance when people can't even see a bus coming at them.

                            up till 2 yrs ago I rode bikes biggest 1300 kwak smallest Honda c50 my missus made me get rid of my last one 900 triumph trophy,i loved that bike best bike I ever owned, but, all the blokes I rode with who remained on bikes are dead or in wheel chairs, and most of those were the fault of the car drivers, so looking back I think my missus was right, pete was a young guy, I don't know his actual age but I would say 25-30 and he will probably have a good chance of a full recovery me at 58 I doubt it.

                              Pity it wasn't a car and it ripped her door off. F-ing moron.


                              5* for saving the guys life, thats probably what you did.


                              Bet he is glad you were there, hope he makes a full recovery
