In 1990 I sustained a Spinal Cord injury which left me paralysed, using a motorised wheelchair... no turbo unfortunately.
Personal Computing & the internet has been great way of pursuing another career & many other avenues of keeping the mind active.

Before

I completed a Carpentry and Joinery trade immediately after secondary school in Perth WA. Over the years I ran my own business Tree Lopping, for some years. I then worked in multi-storey construction Industry part of the Carpentry team in Sydney NSW.

Post Injury

Since I was a small child my parents told me stories of me playing with a hammer and wood, so I was always interested in creating, sometimes destroying [but thats another story] so whatever form of work I threw myself into I wanted to know how things worked and to improve on what I knew. So as much as I disliked school, I finished secondary school, I went onto continuing my schoolin and took up more courses after hours to improve my skillsets. And thats what I have been doing since. I have carried that through even post SC Injury. Some courses and training I have completed in the 90's... lot more up till now....

A women and policemen are the actors of this video. Women trick the people and ask them to park her car in a parallel space. When tricked people parking the car the parallel parking convert to disable parking. There are crutches also in the car back seat. What do you think? What will tricked people do? Did they walk with crutches? Or did they hit the women? Or did they pay the fine?
