Hi, from another newbie.

Hello my name is Simon.
I am now a permanent wheelchair user.
I has a motorbike accident, some 9 years ago tomorrow as it happens. I received a head injury which has left me as a stroke victim. I can't walk and my speech is somewhat of an acquired taste. However, my weirdest disability is with my eyes. I now need glasses and have 1 eye permanently blanked out as I now have double vision. My eyes NOW close of there own free will every minute and I then struggle for the next 5 to 10 seconds to open them. This, I feel sure you will appreciate, is most annoying ! It is also why I cannot drive or ride ever again.
Well that's enough about me. I have joined in the hope of finding 1 or 2 people who might like to have a chat, obviously via a keyboard !

I await your reply(s).
