That could be arranged, but it costs money ;)

We talked about this earlier and Dave says he`d already thought of that and had ruled it out. He has spring loaded piaggio short levers??? and can only fit 2 fingers on them??? The fractures were extensive across the width of his hand and the levers didn`t come into contact with the floor. There`s not a scratch on them.

Since it's you I'd do a discount, but as low as a fiver, unofficial photography would need to be banned.

Phil could be the official photographer, the prints would be expensive! ;-)

Not taking a pop, just it seems more and more these days that people just seem to like to have a little rant and rave on the internet rather than just getting on and doing stuff.
Or maybe Claire felt it might help to raise a bit of awareness concerning potentially inappropriate kit? :smt102

armour is not there to stop bones being broken, its there to dissipate the energy that my otherwise have caused more damage.

i have punched a wall and broke my wrist but the energy was initially in my knuckles so you would asume that i should have broke my knuckles but the energy travelled up and broke my wrist. even if i had been wearing a pair of armoured gloves i would have still broke my wrist.

i see what you are saying about the area of armour and the area of break but it may just be a coincidence, you may also say that if it was the armour then how bad would have it been if it were not there.

get well soon Dave.
