Accident...

Post by Zippy » Tue Oct 24, 2006 1:59 pm

Guys, just a quick note to let you know that I had an accident in my car last Saturday (14th) on my back from Andy G's Borders run. Fortunately no-one was hurt and no other cars were involved. The Police are taking no action.

I sustained a small cut to my forehead which is now almost completely healed. Unfortunately I had a passenger in the car - a German lad who was hitching a lift to Glasgow. He is also ok - he had two small cuts to his right hand.

The car will most probably be written off as it is very badly damaged, having ended up, upside down in a field.

Sorry for not posting earlier but last week was hectic for me.

Cheers,
Iain.

sh*t, glad to hear you're ok mate. We missed you on the leaves run at the weekend, nobody knew why you weren't there but that explains it. Any thoughts on whether you'll replace it if it's a gonner?

Sounds nasty hope you are OK, cars can be replaced as long as no people damaged.
