Hi Guys

Just got a text from Josh. He's in the back of an ambulance. Says he got his foot run over by a bus and he's probably broken his ankle. The fact he's texting is reassuring though. Unfortunately he says his Surly is done.

I'll let you know anymore details when I get them.

tell him I said he should have cut down those bars more, and to get well soon.

Shit, I hope he's ok! That couriering is dangerous business.

Shit Josh. Hope your not too bad.
Heal up soon.

Bleh :( Hope he heals up just fine.

I know he requested deletion, but this is just too far.

Heal up josh.

Jesus dude hope you're alright!

I'm looking forward to hearing the story tumbling out of his mouth. The chap has such a way with words.

calls off the rest of the Deletion Squad

Hope it's not as serious as it sounds and the bike is ok. :(

Be well

Shit Josh :/ rubbish news, heal up soon dude!

Ouch! Texting from an ambulance gets badass points. Heal up

Was it something I said last night?
If it was SORRY, you shouldn't have taken it to heart. A bus is extreme.
Get well and make the NHS work for you.

Je suis desole Dude, HUS!

Nasty. GWS Josh!

Hope you're alright Josh! x

They've taken him to University College Hospital. His bicycle's in the basement of some building.

get well soon josh.

oh noes! And just last night he was spinning like a mad man. Good job he's ok.

Ouch, shouldn't be getting yourself run over by buses Josh, those things are heavy. Heal up fast buddy.

Last two texts from Josh

"Just got the fucking helmet lecture"
"Waiting for an x-ray"

I don't know how they expect the helmet would have helped his foot (but let's not get into that)

They called him a helmet? Bit harsh.

This is what happens when you leave the safe embrace of north drinks. Again, hope its not too bad.

Shit news. I almost feel bad for beating him on the rollers last night.

Hope he's OK.

heal up soon velo libre.

those buses are dangerous and subsidised. wtf ?

Shit Josh, hope you okay.

Josh, heal up fast!

Fucking 'ell dude! Bad luck my friend!

Josh has requested that if people are texting him could they please include their name as he has a new phone and hasn't stored numbers.
