If you've seen 'Ello then you might of noticed my smashing into a tree half way through my section. Not gonna lie, it was a massive bummer. It ended my season which, up until that point, had been pretty good.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2KoLvql60DA/S5QOgXSUpFI/AAAAAAAAAAM/Wj_yBhsFjos/s1600-h/kneecollage.jpg" style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 160px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2KoLvql60DA/S5QOgXSUpFI/AAAAAAAAAAM/Wj_yBhsFjos/s320/kneecollage.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5445993798567240786" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div&gt;1 year on i've had 4 surgeries.  The first was to put the 4 pins and 2 wires in my kneecap to hold it together.  6 months after that in july 2009 i had the pins removed and an arthroscopy to investigate the ligaments.  The arthroscopy showed that I had torn my MCL and blown my PCL.  So I was booked into surgery in November to get them sorted out.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My november surgery didn't exactly go to plan, it was meant to be a lengthy surgery anyway at 4hours.  But due to complications during the procedure it turned out to be 7 hours.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The complications were to do with my PCL and the bulk of the time was spent sorting that out, so my MCL was still screwed. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My doctor apologised the next day and told me I would have to come in again in January to have my MCL repaired.   Which I did on the 29th Jan 2010.  This surgery went well, my MCL is currently feeling good and I'm ready to get back in the gym and get some super buff legs.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I was told that my PCL surgery  totally failed and i'll have to go in again next year.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So for now, i'm planning the Summer Heat Series, the new Black Label clothing line from UNITY and running the UNITY Proshop.  I wish I could be out in the mountains, but i think the year off has given me some time to think and sort my life/finances out.  But watch this space for when i'm back in the snowdomes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5122222278434255925-29427764968014878?l=andrewcollin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://andrewcollin.blogspot.com/feeds/29427764968014878/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://andrewcollin.blogspot.com/2010/03/yo-thanks-for-checking-in-on-my-blog.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5122222278434255925/posts/default/29427764968014878'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5122222278434255925/posts/default/29427764968014878'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://andrewcollin.blogspot.com/2010/03/yo-thanks-for-checking-in-on-my-blog.html' title='Catch up time...'/><author><name>Andy Collin</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11909396558429511189</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2KoLvql60DA/S5QOgXSUpFI/AAAAAAAAAAM/Wj_yBhsFjos/s72-c/kneecollage.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5122222278434255925.post-8285134784905867723</id><published>2010-03-06T08:38:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-03-06T08:39:16.321-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Coming Soon...</title><content type='html'>First post coming soon so be sure to check back in a couple of days...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5122222278434255925-8285134784905867723?l=andrewcollin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://andrewcollin.blogspot.com/feeds/8285134784905867723/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://andrewcollin.blogspot.com/2010/03/coming-soon.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5122222278434255925/posts/default/8285134784905867723'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5122222278434255925/posts/default/8285134784905867723'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://andrewcollin.blogspot.com/2010/03/coming-soon.html' title='Coming Soon...'/><author><name>Andy Collin</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11909396558429511189</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
