Kind gesture... but I don't think paul ride anything under a few thousand pounds....

Get well soon paul...

I think this weighs a few thousand pounds.

SHIT! this is bad
Heal up quick mate, it's a shocker, but we all know this wont stop you ;)

If needed We will change Westies driks from the ship to your palacious pad for canapes and gin till you are fully up and at it.

enjoy those nurses and try get those cuts kissed better my man, i heard it helps the healing process.

Really sorry to hear this. Get some good rest and heal yourself....

Really sorry to hear this Paul, do hope you're mending fast. Looking forward to seeing you back in action.

Damn ! Bad luck Mr 14, hope you heal up fast.

fiddy so good to know you're alive even if you're smashed up to high heaven....

sounds nasty

most definitely.

50/14 - I had a great idea earlier today.I was thinking about all those young nurses and the inevitability of the ensuing lawsuits. So I thought it would be helpful to raise a bit of cash so you could settle out of court. I figured you werent that attached to your bike (well, not that attached as you were flying through the air) so I thought I could sell it for you! I went in to bikehut but they thought it would be worth more with suspension forks. I was suspicious, so I went to evans for a second opinion as to what it might be worth. I asked them what a second hand, crashed once pinnacle (it was a pinnacle, wasn't it?) would be worth. Anyway, the long and short of it is that they recommended I sell it on ebay for about £50. Which I did! But, wait, it gets better. I met this nice guy from nigeria, who accidentally paid me £5000 instead of £50. He said it must be a problem with western union and I should send him the bike and after I told him the story about you and your impending lawsuits for interfering with young nurses, he told me to keep an extra £450. Aparrently he has some experience with lawsuits and knows how expensive they can be. Anyway, as your bank card was in your saddlebag, I used your account, I hope that's ok?

So by the time you read this, your old bike is winging it's way to this guys brother's house in latvia, and you're £500 better off!

I hope this story makes you feel much better and you can wait to get out of hospital to see what you could spend your money on!

Sounds really nasty. :( Get well soon.

Just saw this. Fucking hell. Get well quicker than soon Paul. Sounds rough.

see I put George and Ringo in brackets then removed them to maintain the sombre tone but you just had to go there didn't you Murts...

... I blame Muttley - he's clearly a bad influence (like he needs influencing).
;-D

Fred your all heart :)

Boris is all talk on the cycling safety issue, i've yet to see any actual action.

Whodafuckinnthunkit?

Shit Fiddy! I hope you recover fast and we'll all see you at drinks soon.
