Hopefully they get you sorted in no time mate and this will just become a distant memory! I would go back to bulk eating if I lost my licence. I only enjoy petrol and food 😂
7:12 firstly I hope you make a full recovery from whatever you are suffering from. Secondly having been in your shoes both from a health standpoint and no licence I can say that my faith was critical to help me overcome the disappointment in myself and situation I found myself in. Two things that my faith has taught me is that PATIENCE is key and GRATITUDE that it could be worse really helps in times of worldly tribulations. Know that out of the darkness of night comes the morning sunshine and remaining positive is the way forward.
Not to float my own boat here, but it sounds like you are talking about some things that are in my field of research and expertise... You saved my relationship, Literally! And if I can help here in anyway, I am all yours to help out, you have my number buddy But as ot sounds quite sensitive, I will leave that contact in your court... God bless you and yours Bryn All the best 🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻
I had my licence revoked by the DVLA after my consultant sent in a report for various medical issues, in total could not drive for 7 months, it was a nightmare getting to and from work and relying on people for lifts, getting my licence back took 2 months with lots of calls and emails it was a hard upward struggle. Ps it only took 3 days recently to get an MRI scan, the front line NHS staff do a brilliant job in an overstretched but underfunded system, good luck it's a hard road ahead
Wow dude keep strong. Have no idea what I would do. Some days I don’t like driving any more so many muppets on the road. But been driving for 20 years and used a car/van every day. for work and day to day stuff As well as for fun in the TT I really don’t Know what I would do
Now most companies allow working from home, not having a car is not as much of a issue. If however your job depends on it, its gonna be rough. A mate of mine came off the road and crashed his car. Doctors said he had a seizure. He had to change jobs and sell his cars and bikes. He doesn't regret it though. He was just thankful his wife and kid wont in rhe car, and he didn't injure anyone else.
Like many others here, so sorry to hear your news, but I hope you get sorted and you'll be allowed back on the road when you're ready. It's important about what you can do not what you can't ☺I'd be stuffed without my licence as no-one to ferry me around and both local and wider public transport messy and unreliable. TTake care out there and feel the love 😎
Chin up and patience brother! This is a great opportunity to do true maintenance on the car (things that don’t improve performance but still need doing) - hope you get your driving status reinstated soon 💪🏼
Bryn, I’ve just come through a full appendix surgery including surrounding bowel tissue followed by a right hemicolectomy so that’s the right side large intestine removed. I don’t begin to know what you’re going through but I’m looking at a 4-10 month period of no TT tinkering and when I was discharged from hospital I was not allowed to drive for 6 weeks due to an inability to perform an emergency brake application. I’ll say this for anyone currently in denial over their own health concerns. I’m fully comfortable discussing what has happened to me now that I’ve been through the procedures. However us men are not ones for discussing health issues let alone going to get them sorted. Just think of it as knowing your brakes are going to fail imminently but deciding not to change them, ignorance doesn’t make it better. I’ve recently lost my uncle through ignorance of prostate cancer and my dad recently survived prostate cancer, this to me is a stark wake up call and the difference in attitudes towards dealing with it are obvious. Get yourselves tested lads, if you’re 50+ you can get it done my dad had a PSA reading of 10.5 with 10 being the lower limit for prostate cancer. My uncle had a PSA reading into the hundreds. It upsets me, he was my uncle by marriage (and divorce) but he could have done something to prevent it or at least given himself a longer life. Sorry rant over, I’ll carry on watching now, it’s just an outpouring after so many family health issues.
Damn. Sorry to hear this. Hope you get the MRI quickly and are back on the road quickly. I know someone who has just had a seizure and is in a similar position. Can't drive for a year!
Been back in road before you know it all being well Bryn. The closest i have been to being stranded is when car was in garage for a day ended up being a week( not the same of course) but that was a hard week. Relying on lifts, taxis the car was in garage 14 miles away to drive there 20mins. To get there without a car. Travel work bus time tables trains needing to get to somewhere quickly it really puts in perespective life without a car. So on some level realise it is a massive void. Like you my job requires i have a license with out it i cant do job i have so could lead to loss of employment
Wow!!!! I am in America and we don’t do that here. I am so sorry this has happened. Also, I have been watching your vids for a couple of years now, and you guys do a lot of stuff over there ( pertaining to cars) that we don’t do. Example- MOT- I don’t know what that is, but I hear you guys talking about these inspections, etc., that you have to do drive over there. Man, inspection here in Georgia is really just emissions, nobody checks the brakes, struts, springs, etc. NOBODY!!! Again, sorry to hear that. I had an MRI several years ago and I drove myself to it, lol. We are lax apparently here in USA. Be well, sir, and you will be back behind the wheel in no time!!
Really sorry to hear this. For some people it's just an inconvenience, but when a big part of your life is cars and driving them, it's far more than that. I remember what I was like when I was in my 20s and 30s with cars, and this would feel like the bottom had fallen out if my world. I hope that whatever it was, isn't going to be ongoing. An old friend of mine has the occasional bout of vertigo which means they get terrible nausea and everything feels like it's spinning round, and as that can strike at any time, they can't drive as it could be dangerous (they've had to tell the DVLA). The last attack left them needing an ambulance. Hope whatever you have is nothing like that.
Hope you get back to normal asap you probably have lost weight to quick and upset the timing I had a 12 week off driving after an operation after the first few weeks it got easier my temper didn’t but I’m a lot older than you but I missed the freedoms get well soon big lad take it easy until your right 👍🍺
Shit man so sorry to hear this. Sitting here with covid, annoyed i haven't been able to get out and work on my titties then this pops up on youtube notifications. Really puts things into perspective. I'm gonna stop complaining. No one rolls around on their driveway playing with cars in a freeze and storms anyway... Your vids have always helped me a lot with maintaining my heaps, wishing you the best possible news going forward 🤘
Hey Bryn. Keep your chin up mate💪 I missed driving so badly when I have had mine off the road, this much be so much worse:( Hope you are well, all the best
Chin up mate hopefully all turns out good soon. If didn’t have my licence for a bit I’d probably focus on spending time getting my TT exactly where I want it more
Wow sorry to learn this. Been there. Suffered a subdural haematoma as a result of an accident. Took 17 months before I got licence back. As this was during covid times and a staff dispute at DVLA obviously did not help. Lots of walking, buses and taxis, just had to get on with it. Burden was lessened as I am retired but a blow never the less.
Oh no.. love your videos.. You tought me so much about TT and i got myself one MK1 that is such a lemon i have watched your videos multiple times.. get well soon and i hope best for you
Good luck Bryn take this time to reflect and relax .Life nowadays is hectic and we all do too much I'm sure .All your fans will be wishing you the best I'm sure .You don't need to be working on a TT to make content you can talk about a TT most of us would still watch 👍.I'm sure things will be fine Bryn good on you for being so open with us
Your a young healthy man better get checked and put worries out your mind thats step 1 . I was not able to drive for a few months and it was just like being a teenager again useing buses and trains just made me appreciate driving when i was back .Best wishes to you and family
Mate - I’m so sorry to hear this - I really feel for you. I’m sincerely hope everything will be ok and you can get behind the wheel sooner rather than later … fingers crossed for you pal
Hope you get a scan soon, and fair play for talking about it especially if it's helping you process what your going through, no shame in that. All the best.
The main thing is to confirm all is good with your health and/or address any health issues that are there, the rest including the driving will fall back into place. Fingers crossed all works out well for you !!!
Really sorry to hear that Bryn, I really hope your tests help to realise a good outcome for you and that they come through sooner rather than later. You asked what we think would be the best way to deal with this news..... so here goes, I think the best thing you could do is to try to turn bad news into a positive, by making this a challenge. You could aim to get as much done as possible to your TT with no testing, to see if it can take your car to the next level in as many areas as possible, so that when you finally get behind the wheel and send it, you will experience a real dramatic difference. You could make it a 2024 challenge event and take all your viewers with you on the journey. That way we can be there to support you and feel the excitement building along with you. I get this isn't where your head is probably at, but I think it could be a good way to stay busy and give you something really worth looking forward to.
@@BWSTTglad you clarified that as it was my first thought / worry. Hope you get cleared soon and remember your health is more valuable than your driving license. If it’s any consolation I’ve had really nice cars all my life until a few years ago when I stopped working for ‘the man’ and decided to work from home and not own a car. I still have bikes and my wife lets me drive her car at weekends but I get it, it’s like the rug being pulled from under you. I now walk to a lot of places I’d have instinctively driven to and quite enjoy the challenge in a weird masochistic kind of way 😂 Rest up and be calm.
With the cost of gas, insurance and maintenance, there are days where I’ve thought it would be cheaper to use Uber/Lyft instead, like an 18-year old. And, you can get pissed too. :) Good luck
The support on here is amazing, thank you each and everyone of you!
Hopefully they get you sorted in no time mate and this will just become a distant memory!
I would go back to bulk eating if I lost my licence. I only enjoy petrol and food 😂
So sorry to hear this. You can’t put a price on your health Bryn. Wishing you a speedy recovery and a good outcome.
7:12 firstly I hope you make a full recovery from whatever you are suffering from. Secondly having been in your shoes both from a health standpoint and no licence I can say that my faith was critical to help me overcome the disappointment in myself and situation I found myself in.

Sucks, hope you'll get the all-clear after the MRI..
Can you not just get your PA to drive you around, that's part of their job description no?
All the best Bryn. I do X3 the mileage on my bikes (pushbikes) than I do in my cars. Pedal assist bikes are popular for commuting. Just a thought.
Not to float my own boat here, but it sounds like you are talking about some things that are in my field of research and expertise...
You saved my relationship, Literally!
And if I can help here in anyway, I am all yours to help out, you have my number buddy
But as ot sounds quite sensitive, I will leave that contact in your court...
God bless you and yours Bryn
All the best 🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻
Could always buy a donkey... I've bought a few sheds in my time. Chin up..😊

This is exactly why doctors recommend not buying MK2 TTs. They're bad for your health!
Fingers Crossed the MRI comes back clear and you are back on the road again soon. Best of luck, love the videos you put out.
I got banned..
Of rlass for been a back seat driver..not aloud in car with her anymore 😂😂. Keep tha chin up kid.

Health issues haven’t been able to drive in 3 years mate now the. Felling chin up mate you’ll be driving again soon. Wish you the best
"Health is your wealth" as they say.... Take care.... Make sure you take the time it needs... No rush....
Chin up and patience brother! This is a great opportunity to do true maintenance on the car (things that don’t improve performance but still need doing) - hope you get your driving status reinstated soon 💪🏼
Can you collab with another UA-camr who wants the mods doing but isn't good with a spanner?
PS Happy to have a chat on the phone to help you figure out your next step. I've found your channel really useful for dealing with my old TT.
Typical petrol head, more worried about not being able to drive than your health. Keep strong Bryn and I hope you get the good news soon.
I wouldn't have mentioned a thing if I didn't get caught.
I'd also pay up and go private.
Bryn, I’ve just come through a full appendix surgery including surrounding bowel tissue followed by a right hemicolectomy so that’s the right side large intestine removed.

Can I have one of ur TTs if you can’t drive anymore? Haha jk hope you get better soon
Hope it all works out well Bryn, I wouldn't know what to do without a car, Pubic transport is not good.
Best wishes from America! Love your stuff, never quit.
Hope it all gets sorted quickly m8 🙏health is more important
