Lumps and Bumps

Monday, May 14, 2007 5:37 AM

Last week I had a serious accident in my car. The good news is that I was very lucky to just have a lump on my head, bumps and bruises and a fractured pelvis. I won't be jumping and skipping for a while but I feel happy, healthy and extremely lucky.

The staff at the Surrey County Hospital were fantastic! I can't thank them enough for looking after me and looking after my wife and family and keeping them informed of everything that was happening.

Obviously, things aren't 100% right with me and it's going to be like this for a little while yet, so I'm going to just chill out and get better. I will however will still keep this blog updated, hey infact you may get to see more from me as I've got to do something to keep the brain juices going!

Anyway, here's to getting better soon!

Take care ... Dave

Hmmm, did the wife cut your brake cables?

A fractured pelvis? *snicker* You're sure it was a car accident? :p 5/14/2007 6:42 AM | barryd

"things aren't 100% right with me " - I knew at some point I would get a gem of a quote out of you...

Get well, keep your pelvis under control, and see you soon back at work! 5/14/2007 8:08 AM | Dave E

Sorry to hear about the accident. I'm glad you are alive and hope that your injuries heal quickly.

So how exactly did you end up in a crash in the first place??? your usually such a careful driver! 5/15/2007 8:03 AM | Sarah

Glad you're alright, sometimes everyone forgets that plummeting along a road in a ton or so of metal at 70MPH is a tad dangerous ...

Were the other people involved in the accident okay as well? 5/16/2007 5:01 AM | Ross

Hey Dave - sounds like no shagging for you, at least a few months anyhow - really nasty! 5/23/2007 5:45 AM | The Scouser
