Saul Posted May 23, 2024 Share Posted May 23, 2024 Looks like she went down hard, actually turned out quite nastily for her. Looks like she is going to have a big scar from the surgery. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowlycatchymonkey Posted May 23, 2024 Share Posted May 23, 2024 Blimey I wasn't expecting that. They really messed her about didn't they! I admire how practical she is and you really see just what a tough cookie she is in that one. Very few people can exercise the level of control over pain that she displays. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get on better with her than my Mrs who finds her extremely frustrating at times, whereas it is the opposite with my son who I could happily slap around, although I never would. I do think in life when she finds her focus on something career wise there will be no holding her back. Or its the hope I cling to . Probably just normal Dad soft on daughters hard on sons and the other way with Mums. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I dunno, I have boys but I'm aware it's much easier to project what you consider your own faults onto a child that's the same sex. My eldest has traits of mine that I don't like and I find it hard not to tell him off for them, where as my youngest who is without a doubt much harder work has a lot of his Dads traits and I find I'm endlessly patient with those! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saul Posted May 23, 2024 Share Posted May 23, 2024 There is some truth in that, my boys immaturity really gets to me but I do have to bite my tongue as I know I was probably worse at his age. I just wish he would get out there an live rather than behave like a 20 year old incel most of the time. He does work though so perhaps I shouldn't moan. Just want the best for him really as I suppose most people do for their kids. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckster Posted May 23, 2024 Share Posted May 23, 2024 She is lucky, that could have been a whole lot worse, the rule of thumb with that type of overlanding is to band up with other solo travellers or groups. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted May 23, 2024 Share Posted May 23, 2024 There are lots of solo female travellers and so far as I know only one of them ended up in a ditch quite close to being carrion. They robbed her, raped her and beat the shit out of her, then left her for dead but somehow she survived. Edit: she freely admits pitching her tent (on her tod) where she pitched it wasn't wise but the locals had told her it was a safe area and she'd be fine there. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
