Hey Doc take it easy and make a quick recovery. Guess you won't be getting any drinks on the house you hit.

ok the morphine is out of my system now so i can finally rember stuff for more than a few minutes. still dont know what happened, but injuries are:

left tibia broken in 2 places - repaired with internal nail, but swelled up (compartment syndrome) during repair, so had to be sliced open (faciotomy)
right femur broken - repaired with internal nail
right fibula broken (?left as well) - left to heal on its own
right humerous broken - repaired with a plate (nice scar)
right clavicle broken - mending on its own
left ulna shattered at elbow - repaired with plate - a bit sore but almost full use already

i can walk short distances with a fair amount of pain, but its getting better as the days go by. im hoping to get out of hospital next week. excuse the writing this patientline keyboard is <beep>!

photos to follow once i get out.

Good to hear you're getting better. Wish you a speedy recovery

Sooner you get out the sooner you can sort your next motor.

[AdamS4]

Sounds like one hell of a crash... lucky to be alive

Glad your on the mend and moving around. Best of luck with the physio and recovery

Yay for going home! Next weekend I'll be up in Manchester and have some time on Saturday if you want a visitor. If you do, drop me a PM with where you actually are.

the pictures of the wreck really upset me when i see them. seeing my pride and joy in that state is only part of it - the thought of what could have happened if my family was in the car with me is the real worry.

looking at the mangled mess that was my car, its a miracle that nobody was killed in this accident. im taking it as a polite warning from whatever powers govern the universe. one thing is for sure - my driving style will have major revisions when i get back on the road. the 'thrill' factor becomes less important to you when something like this happens.

looks like my next car will probably be an audi all-road diesel auto. my 'sub-supercar' days are over (for now), although i will be treating myself to a few lambo or ferrari track days with the money i save on fuel

[MarkB]

Not a bad plan you have there.

When we changed our family car recently I went for a 5 star EuroNap car. Limited my choice's a bit but when you see the difference it can make I thought it worth while.

good to hear form you again Al, best wishes for your recovery. Sounds like you definitely had a lucky escape... get yourself a lottery ticket!

Take care dude.
