The Weekend – AKA The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly

I have not posted for a while, so I Figure I’ll post some kind of update whilst waiting for a phone call/email/contact of some form.

So the weekend just gone : –

The Good
Well I went out sat night, had a nice meal in a place where the staff were dressed up as pirates. This meant that I got to eat good food, talk random shite with friends, while enjoying the view of some of the waitresses in sexy pirate outfits.

The Bad
Alas I was injured during the Saturday mornings training session, (The annoying thing was I almost did not go, due to having to take my car for service, and a feeling of can’t be arsedness). Anyway, we were doing some ground work, and in a kind of free-spar session at the end, my neck got bent forward past its point of normal movement and there was a cracking kind of noise..

And now I have a bad case of whiplash going on.  :0(

The Ugly
After hearing a crack in my neck (Not a noise you want to hear) I took a few seconds before moving to check I had feeling in my extremities, and could move everything, Then moved off the mat to double check I was fine, before getting back into the ring as it were.  Then at the end the Instructor gave a huge rant, bollocking about people stopping mid spar, and how it’s crap, and must not be done, you should keep fighting.. and so on..

Personally I believe if you receive an injury that could be serious, the sensible thing to do is check yourself out before continuing to fight and make it worse..
