So this will be going on the garage wall


I think you probably forget the impact you have on other people's lives Martin.

Many of the people you deal with are surrounded by other "disabled" people in their friendship circles, not a lot of Boxers, rally drivers, rock stars hang around with cripples of all descriptions.
So when you come to do a job, your incessant energy, talking, and different world you live in with motorbikes, cars etc, is a whole new world to them, and you do make their lives easier, better etc. Just think a guy like Russell that we previously got sorted out.

So when this lady meets you, has some shared interests with you, it is only natural that she would gravitate toward you.

You should feel both honoured and pleased at the gift.

And your mum should be proud of the difference her boy makes in people's lives.

Like Don said....... ........ Payback should be interesting.
