Oh Karl, I don't  consider  you and AMAC as Major mistakes.
Maybe buck Sergeants, until you mens have your coffee.....

Right befoe I retired, I had a big toe crushed, at work, with the tip snapped off. Became a right mess. Was out on wrk. comp. for a few weeks while they worked to save it.
Got in some nice scooter riding.
Heavvvvy boots....no issues. Maybe not the smartest thing I've ever done. But was going stir crazy after doing everything I  could think of around the house and to the scooter! (you can't  keep changing the oil without running the engines!)
.....Sitting in my coffee village wearing armored pants and armored leather jacket, full face helmet, ear plugs, balaclava, heated liners under gauntlets, rain pants, hi viz over-jacket, fairly clean y-fronts and heavy rubber soled leather over the ankle boots. Does take a few mins to get suited up.
Do hit the WC first.....

Come to think, I WAS the Navy equivalent of a buck sargent, Stig! Yes, do hit the head before drssing for the road or utilize the external catheter!
