A fin to the head and a long paddle to the beach!
Thanks Dave for driving me to Margs hospital and my good nurse friends John and Sandy for looking after me.

Get well Owen.. That looks really nasty..

I just got myself a new Gath helmet last week..

That's a good reason why I should start wearing it..

Glad you didn't post the other pic..

Heavy surf injury you got there Greenie stoked you made it back to the beach without blacking out lucky it happened here and no in Indo and your hair will hide the scare. I'd say the good news is you'll be back in the water surfing in a few days wearing your new Gath helmet. Get drunk have a jig-i-jig that will make you feel better.
Same thing happened to me but it was under the arm I was lucky my fin didn't cut my artery otherwise I would have just bleed to death and I was in Timor got stitched up with NO Lidocaine Antiseptic WTF don't you learn how to harden up when your in the middle of f###en nowhere.

Got to love a good gash. Mate that is so nasty .I think you have taken AA's prize away with that one (worst Gash). Looked liked it sewed up well so should be a speedy recovery. Heal well mate.

That is a beauty Greeny. I hope you recover quickly and are able to get back on the horse soon.

Can you remember how it happened?

Crikey. Thanks for sharing that (I think ). Hope it heals fast.

Now I really don't give a fat rat's clacker about how silly my Gath looks.

Also meant to say get well soon! Took so long to load the pics! Know what it's like being forced out of the water for a length of time, frustrating. You're lucky you had good people to help you, makes all the difference I know.
