No such thing....

Billy Connolly once said......


"There's no such things as bad weather, Just inappropriate clothing!"


How true!


I have been in bed the last few days, with a temp, and awful Flu

like symptoms, and a blocked nose trying to break in?! So today

I threw off my duvet, and lethergy, and decided some "S**t or Bust"

action was required?


I decided that if warmth and rest wasn't making me better, then I would

try the COMPLETE opposite, so exercise in the cold was required?!....


I dug out my old Power Boat Race suit/overalls, that are insulated,

waterproof, hooded, and imperviuous to most waether, my best fur hat,

(I felt I owed it to the Chinchillas memories, who all gave up thier lives

for the hat?!) And my trusted (and hated by all !) shades, and set

off in the snow....


I am so pleased I did....I had forgotten the crisp majesty of it all. Also

I had forgotten how lucky I am to live in the wonder of natures back garden!


The virgin snow, animal tracks, bird foot prints allowed a rare glimps into

thier daily routes.... I LOVED IT !!  :-)

About Matt.

My name's Matt. I was born with a congenital heart defect which hampered me in my youth, and sadly became a terminal conditon recently, and beyond the (amazing) care of the BRI-Bristol Heart team.

In 2008, my condition deteriorated, to a point I was happy to see Xmas 2008. I had prepared to die.

Then in January 2009, a late night phone call from QEH-Hospital Birmingham changed my world, when they offered me a heart transplant, if I could get there pronto!!

6 months on, after a rocky start, I am still alive, thanks to them!

Read on to see how my new life is taking shape, and my adventures to date!....

 

Matt.
