Oooof! Bad news.

best wishes to Tim.

Bugger. Hate hearing news like this. Hope he recovers quickly and isn't too badly hurt.

Right folks, I just got back from the hospital. Tim has a broken right wrist and right collar bone plus a suspected broken right foot/toe. He is conscious but not very alert and is having trouble remembering things for more than a few mins. Ct scan was clear (thank God) so hopefully all is fixable.He's having his wrist fixed tomorrow and was just going off to x-ray when I left.
Very nice traffic copper called PC Spence was on the scene and thinks that the car pulled over accross Tim's lane to turn into a side road. Tim had braked without skidding and veered to the left which actually saved him I think as he went over the bonnet rather than into the side of the car with his body. I was literally 5 or 10 seconds behind so missed the actual crash but came accross the wrecked car accross my lane and found Tim on the floor the other side of it (an experience I am not keen to re-live).
Anyway, hopefully all is well.I will let you know when he is ok for visitors but tomorrow probably not a good idea seeing as he's going to Theatre and all that. I'll pass on all your best wishes.

Good news... Keep us all info'd

Thanks for keeping us updated guys. When you next speak to him please tell him we're thinking of him... Once he's sorted & comfortable I'd be interested in what happens to the dozy car driver, they get off far too lightly in my opinion.

Thanks for the info chutz.

I am so glad his CT came back clear. Bones will heal up in time. I take it he is heavily concussed not being able to remember thing for more than a few minutes. Please send my best wishes.

Sounds like it could have been a hell of a lot worse. Hope he recovers well and quickly.

Regards to Tim

Bugger... sorry to read about this.. hope Tim is well.. pass on my best!!
