me jane 0 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Just saw in the chatbox that Kokodoko has broken his leg. (Rumour started by Tsondaboy and confirmed by CB) Koko, you must be so gutted. What happened? Hope it's not too painful. How long have you got left of your hols? Link to post Share on other sites

soubriquet 0 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 You're a hard bstard, Indo. Koko's probably stuck in hospital with nothing but Japanese daytime TV to entertain him. Someone will have to lend him a laptop, then he can post pictures Link to post Share on other sites
orinoco 0 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 He should be able to get his post count up though a fair bit. Get well soon! Link to post Share on other sites
indosnm 0 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 A mate just broke his leg skating and the bone went through near his ankle. He posted pics and where the doc made a cut to put the steel plate in, it looked like maybe he's had a few bottles of sho chu! Hope Koko gets a good doc! ps. Soubs, nothing wrong with a little J daytime drama! Link to post Share on other sites

kokodoko 67 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 yes, i was planning to get pics. they may have sympathy for me.. Link to post Share on other sites
spook 0 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 if you're planning on playing the sympathy card, it's probably best not to tell them that you did it after hitting some crud on a groomed run. i would concoct a story being a professional skiier and how you busted your leg dropping backcountry cliffs, or doing backflips onto rails for a photoshoot if you don't have great pics of you shredding, just download some of the good ones off the photos section and claim them as yours Link to post Share on other sites
