    Welcome back Shiney, and well done BT for getting you back online so quickly.

    I really wish car drivers would slow down. Or at least pay attention to the road, instead of fiddling with the AC/heating/radio/eating/drinking/using mobile/talking to children in back seat.

    Hope there wasn't too much damage to the garden either!

    The police popped round tonight with a letter giving all the details including the names, insurance companies etc of the car drivers and thanking us for our hospitality - cups of tea etc.

    The policeman said that the injured driver was comfortable but had a punctured lung - and that was with the airbag working properly. I don't know whether he was wearing a seat belt but he didn't have it on when I got to him although he was already attempting to get out of the van.

    We'll have to work out the cost of repairing the damage to the garden and claim from his insurance.
