What are mates for Darren.
I told the members at the meeting last night about your present situation and I think this thread is a great place for the members to post there support and best wishes.

For the members that didn't go to the meeting last night I will just fill you in, our mate Hemifish has had a bad run. First off Darren is a true speed junkie, right back from his teenage years racing around in his XU1 Torana, skiing up and down the local river behind his mates insane speed boats, and I'm sure youv'e all seen his last ride The blown 572 goat.
Due to his miss spent youth 17 months ago, Darren had to leave work and under go a full hip replacement, after the surgery complications set in and an infection had him back in hospital to have the hip removed and a temporary spacer put in, till the doctors can beat the infection. Then they will start again with a new hip that's where he is now.
BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE as if that wasn't enough,  bad luck for poor old Hemifish the night before he went to hospital he was cleaning the kitchen, and the new floor, his crutches slipped out from under him on the wet floor, as he hit the ground the kitchen erupted in flames.Darren managed to drag himself from the kitchen to the back door ( Thank god the door was open ) then he threw himself down the back steps as the whole house was lost.

Something I never mentioned at the meeting was The shed the Cuda and his dog are all OK  :bow::bow:

So come on guys lets see a nice post on this forum  to end the day show Darren we care about our members. Post up give him our support.

Hi Darrin , as in Joe's post he said that your hip problem came from your miss spent youth as a skier, having been overtaken by you on more than one occasion when the goat was in full cry I think maybe you may concider the extra force that was being exerted by your right leg may also have had some effect on your hip. Or maybe you think that by getting a bionic hip you will be more capable of giving a big block Mopar that extra kick in the butt.

Seriously Darrin both Enid and I wish you a speedy recovery and we lock forward to catching up with you on the road soon, I gues you have had many offers, but if we can help in anyway please do not hesitate to ask, we would be more than willing.

Regards John

I spent a couple of hours today visiting Darrin, having lots of laughs with Joe trying to get his hospital anolog television to pick up digital television onto his laptop, OMG, it was like the blind leading the blind, lost count of trying different plugs in different sockets without success. So Darrin ended up with only alolog tele to watch the wedding on, hope you didn't miss too much Darrin. LOL.
Anyway, after all Darrin has been through with his house fire, I think he is very lucky to be still with us. It was great to spend some time together today, you were looking better than what I expected. He showed me his hip operation scar & BTW Darrin I think someone should buy you some undies LOL.
Hope to see you out & about soon

Cheers Maureen
