When I was 17 my so called best friend after a few drinks who was twice my size suddenly hit me for no reason. My jaw was broken in 2 places and I had my jaw wired together the next day in hospital. My jaw was wired for 6 weeks and I lost a stone in weight. He was full of apologies so I never said who did it but since having my jaws wired together I have spent a fortune on dental treatment. I stopped being friends with him shortly afterwards. My daughter said they have mentioned doing this Michelle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Eglesbrech Posted September 5, 2023 #49637 Share Posted September 5, 2023 @Peanut006 I know your main concern right now will be your grandsons health and recovery however when things are more settled you may want to have a look at the Gov.U.K. Criminal injuries compensation scheme. Graham mentioned the issues he had with his teeth post a broken jaw. Your grandson hopefully won’t have any side effects but might be worth a read to see if he is eligible for help just in case. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josy1953 Posted September 5, 2023 #49638 Share Posted September 5, 2023 @Peanut006 Thank you for the update it must be a relief that he has come through his surgery and will hopefully recover quickly. I hope that the police will catch the perpetrators and that ghey get what they deserve in court. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he is going to make a good recovery Michelle 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josy1953 Posted September 6, 2023 #49641 Share Posted September 6, 2023 We have a cool breeze this morning though the sky is bright blue so hopefully it will be warm again if the forecast is right. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lincslady Posted September 6, 2023 #49642 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Got the East Coast mist here - though many miles from the coast - so cool, but no doubt in about two hours it will have cleared, and be hot and sunny again. Think I will open a few windows now to let the cool air in for a while. Best wishes to Michelle's grandson for a full recovery without complications. He is at the right age to sleep for England, which will help. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplesea Posted September 6, 2023 #49645 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Also bright and sunny down here, and I am please to say that the wind we have had the last few days has dropped🙂 Seemed to spend a lot of time on the phone yesterday. To cut a long story short, rang insurance company to update policy, told need to ring broker, rang them they said no I need to ring insurance company! Mum then rang about change of itinerary as confused about the wording of the e-mail. Later on other members of our party rang me regarding the change too. I didn't know I had taken on the job as a travel agent! 😲🤣 I'm now waiting to see what shore excusions are going to be available. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobstheboy Posted September 6, 2023 #49646 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Pleased to hear your grandson is home Michelle. I hope the police arrest the culprit, too many of his type around, no body is safe these days. Murky start which should soon clear for another scorcher. Family round later for a BBQ. Have a good one everybody. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beckett Posted September 6, 2023 #49647 Share Posted September 6, 2023 @Peanut006 I'm just catching up after a couple of days Michelle and was really shocked to read about your grandson. Poor chap must have been so frightened. I hope he makes a good recovery and I pray he's not too traumatised. I can't find any printable words about the scum who did this but my God I hope they are caught - and soon. I send best wishes to you and all your family.

Purdey16 Posted September 6, 2023 #49648 Share Posted September 6, 2023 This is the second time I wrote this so if it’s turned up somewhere else my apologies 😂. We had a very good sunny hot day in Cadiz yesterday , this time we docked somewhere different from where we docked 10 years ago, we have already walked along and around the sea wall along the beach and back through the beautiful garden so this time we explored the town and went to some cathedrals and churches and a ancient anthem theatre and some wine shopping 😉 we got back on ship after walking for 4 hours that was enough for me so we had a light lunch and sat on top deck and had a swim to cool down but it became too hot for us so we went to our cabin and watched a film and snoozed , got ready early for dinner and went and sat at the wakeview bar for the sail and a couple of margaritas, then we visited the cocktail bar and sat chatting to some lovely Americans. Dinner in the mdr has been lovely and hot and we seem to get a lovely table with a sea view every night and a lovely waiter, there is only about 5 tables in the side bit so is much quieter than being in the middle of the dining room which can be quite noisy. Today we are sat in the sanctuary and a slight breeze is keeping us cool , we are very very happy we managed to bag the sanctuary beds for the full sea days we booked because it’s a bum fight out there and it was early this morning and no one could find a sunbed by 9 o’clock. Just waiting for our lunch to arrive now , a few pictures of Cadiz and our view in the sanctuary. 17 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
