Looking great, Shane! Thank you for the hard work.

i just have a bit more editing to do like some of the fonts and buttons  then i think its almost done

Thanks, Shane.

Nice to see the website up and running again and your work is much appreciated.

well the old theme no longer works with the current version of SMF forums so i will have to spend some time editing this one back to look something like we had before,

Simple Portal is also no longer supported on smf 2.1.3 so i have installed EZportal as this is which will allow a shout box

i will keep editing over the next few days but you can continue to post and use the site

I am currently moving the host back to our original host  but in doing so i have had to upgrade the smf website and  this has made some bits no longer work, i will look to get this up and running again in the next day or 2 please bare with me

Thanks Shane mate. Learning to live with only 1 leg is proving to be difficult at the moment, but i hope that will improve when i get a false leg to work with. I'm tying to get 2 temporary ramps fitted on the steps into my flat and bedroom to make things easier for me, beings i cant get in and out of my flat or bedroom without the help of the tenant living above me.  At least i've managed to get rid of my old car before my leg was amputated lol.

In the past week i managed to locate and purchase a nice BMW320D Automatic estate car, so at least i'm not restricted to my flat and wheel chair all the time. Maybe too big and expensive to run and keep long term, but i needed something quickly and that was the only auto car available in the price range i was willing to pay.       

bloody hell Rob  sorry to read this i havent been on in a while, glad to see your ok mate and making a recovery hopefully you wont have to move but i guess this will depend on what they need to do to make your flat wheelchair friendly

if you need anything just let me know

Thank you Mark. Much appreciated

Thank you, Rob, for taking the time to post and let us know about your issues, surgery and recovery process as I am sure it wasn't easy to discuss so soon after the experience. Please know that we are all thinking of you and, apart from a Merry Christmas, wishing you a very speedy recovery, M8.

Firstly thank you to peter for making this post at my request, beings i couldnt really face the task of informing members about my situation. About 5 months ago i started getting sores show up on my right leg, but i just ignored them and treated them with savalon cream. Over the next 5 months i started finding if difficult to walk and drive, and like a fool i just ignored the sores and my condition.   It then got to the stage where my sister noticed  how difficult it was for me to walk,so she  forced me to make a doctors apointment.

As sson as the doctor saw my leg he made me an emergency appointment at the vascular clinic in newport, and at that appointmoint i was addmitted into the uiversity hospital in cardiff. My right leg was amputated just above the knee on friday. All went well with the operarion, so its just a case of me putting my best leg forward and going through the recovery procces.  That ofcourse wont stop me playing cod once i return home.  I'm hoping to get moved back to a newort hospital during the xmas period, then ther procces will start to adjust my flat ito cater for me and a wheelchair.  Hopefully i wont have to move but there is that chance, so its just a case of wait and see.    I will be removing one of the servers when its payment is next due, because i dont see any point in keeping 2 anymore due to the lack of member support over the past few years. 

many thanks to Mark,Peter,taffy and Tommy plust the other members who still make the effort to play on sunday and monday evenings. Apart from that may i wish you all a happy christmas, and i'll keep you updated regarding my health as and when it happens.
