🚨 UPDATE 🚨

Today I attended an appointment to see a spinal surgeon. With the results from the MRI the surgeon has stated that I require surgery on my back to remove a disc that is bulging and hitting my Sciatic nerve.
Not the news I wanted but on the other hand it's the news I needed. Hopefully this sorts my back issues out once and for all to allow me to get back on the roads....
I will be out of work for 6-8 weeks to recover from the surgery so at this stage I will not be taking on any new clients. Once im on the road to recovery I will ensure to get my diary open once again.

Spinal surgeon tomorrow in the Ulster Independent hospital to see if we can finally sort out my back issues......get me back on the road 🚘

If it hadnt been for my wife this week I wouldn't have been able to get my pupils out on their tests. On top of her own work, running after the kids and myself she volunteered to pick up my pupils and take them to their tests....forever grateful. As they say Teamwork makes the dream work ❤️
