Again - no lectures please - Park Station to Ellis Park in Jhb.

I walk that way often and have never had a problem.

Was late this morning and decided to take the train instead of the car - silly mistake.

 

Damn, I work from Park Station to Bank City pretty often, will think twice before doing that again

I have a blackberry curve I used for 3 months that you can have bud. PM me if you're interested.

 

That's NOT why I posted this - but thanks for the offer bro - I may just take you up on it (for a short loan period)

Cool, cool, cool. It's just been gathering dust so it would be rad to help someone out with it.

hope you heal up soon - please consider going to see a trauma counselor ASAP.

 

all the best!

 

Definitely get some counselling - for you and your family - worth spending the time - and I say this both from a professional point of view and a personal one, having a few scars from a knife myself.

 

Heal up soon.

Walking to the office from the Gautrain station this morning, Mr. Often-Spotted-Velcro-Crested-Wallet-Snatcher in front of me suddenly stops, turns around, jabs a knife in my ribs, while 4 grab me from behind, put a knife to my throat, and start going through my pockets.

 

So instinct takes over and I start fighting back, but its too late - They have my Blackberry(work phone) AND my Samsung personal cellphone AND empty out my wallet, and chuck it in my face before getting away.

I am proud to report I fought like a tiger to prevent them from taking my backpack - which contains the laptop (works).

 

So the body is lekker eina and stiff - feels like I have been in a car accident and my throat is scratched up like a cheating husbands car where the bastard had the knife to my throat.

 

All in all, a pretty crappy morning. But hey, its not as cold as it was last week!

Added to the whole retrenchment debacle of recent weeks( HELP CARPET THREAD) and this is turning out to be quite a trying month, to say the least.

 

BUT, I can proudly say that AT LEAST I TRIED TO FIGHT BACK!!!

AND IT FEELS GOOD!!!!

Maybe stupid in hindsight, but when I went bezerk, they backed off and ran!

(Sorry Lord for all the ugly words and names I screamed after them... :cursing: )

 

So anyway, please someone buy my single speed that I have built up so that I can buy a new phone - mine was not insured! (no lectures please!)

Will post pics soon!

 

All's well that ends well - still alive, and no serious injuries, thank the Lord.

 

Be careful out there people - these things happen in the blink of an eye!

Horrible bru, glad you're ok. Praying everything works out all right for you and the family!
