    Bet they are scratching their head wondering were it is, or maybe not!

    They might have a different prosthesis for driving? But yes, it is a bit of an odd thing to forget... :P

    They're probably sitting at home thinking "I'm sure I've forgotten something, but I just can't put my finger on it........finger........hand.......oh f***! MY ARM!" :lol:

    Anyway, I hope it's reunited with the owner, can't be a cheap thing to replace.

    I can understand putting MTB stickers on your bike or helmet, but sticking them on your false arm? Maybe they wanted tattoos...

    I don't envy the person that was happily walking / riding along and suddenly saw what looked like a severed human arm and a bike helmet on the ground :shock: :shock:

    I would have needed a seriously strong drink after that!!

    I expect it was left by someone with particularly tight fitting tyres and was using it to hold the 3rd tyre lever! :idea:

    I'd heard the one about being as much use as Heather Mills in an ar$e kicking competition, but that's a different problem.

    Heather Mills is nothing more than an answer as to how you would like your coffee:

    Julie Andrews: White- none (nun)
    Whoopie Goldberg: Black - none
    Heather Mills: White with one
