Kirby did us proud I think.

how could the driver not stop? i just don't understand. Just watched the documentary on Millie Dowler and now read this and now can't stop crying.

rest in peace Peter.

Hey, really good to hear you are being so positive. i was involved in a similar accident to you and had similar injuries - i also found this forum in the same way and you couldn't find a group of more supportive kind people, so stick around....
if you ever need to talk to someone who knows what you have been through, please do message me x

this makes me so angry and so sad. how can this have happened?

from experience, someone just holding your hand and being calm has an amazingly calming effect. also there was an off duty nurse talking to me, and just having someone just distract me was calming. she asked me loads of questions, like my name, where was i going, where did i work. anything to stop me thinking about what was currently happening to me. she also managed to get my phone out of my bag and call my mum (i couldn't remembed anyones number) and i was so pleased that as she did it she walked out of earshot - i knew my mum's reaction would not be great. apparently she also didnt give my mum any real details, just that I was involved in a collision with a lorry but was talking and paramedics were on their way. i think my mum would have had a nervoud break down if she had said i was crushed under the wheel.

having someone in calm control of the situation makes a huge difference. also someone who is patient but firm with you when you try to do silly things that you shouldn't. you might get annoyed at the time, but after are so grateful. also someone to stop the driver doing somethign silly, even if they are trying to help. they are likely to be in shock and not functioning properly either.

my thoughts go out to all involved x

nope, it was cycling to work. me vs lorry.

i used to go 2-3 times a week. if you do it that much it turns out not so expensive per session. i made it up to the top group and yes it was brutal, but i have never been so fit in my life. my core was ridiculous. i am the kind of person who is motivated to exercise and keep fit, but need to someone to push me to the max. the only reason i stopped i because i had to, due to my accident. incidentally, the doctors said the reason i didn't get any more seriously injured was because i was so fit and strong.

i wasn't a big fan, but there is a bakery in weymouth that makes the most incredible eccles cakes ever. don't know the recipe though. sorry.

so good to hear such good news. stay strong and positive xxx

do they give a reason why all their names begin with B?

with some dogs it is tradition to name them with the same first initial as the mother or father.

^ want. now.

made honeycomb last night which was a success, then made nougat which was not quite so good - think the recipe said to boil the sugar to too high a temp. going to try again today.....

Jinks, my BC watching One man and his Dog and getting some tips (she came 3rd in her 2nd sheepdog trial last weekend).

plus an unexpected new arrival in the snow....

m&s all butter luxury mince pies = win.

james, i know that you are going through this trauma as much as she is, and she is very lucky to have you to help her through this. my thoughts and support go out to you both. i am in london this week and if there is anything i can do - anything at all - please let me know.

i hope to god she pulls through. i read this thread with so much hope, and now i have tears rolling down my face. please please let her be ok.

concerned, i was in a similar position to this girl just over 2 years ago. i cannot tell you how much the support and care of strangers meant to me and how much it calmed and helped me. i am now still in touch with the person who held my hand until the paramedics arrived.he came to visit me in hospital twice and it was amazing to see him again. i think it helped him to see me alive too. i know that sounds mushy, but it's hard to explain how you feel about the people who have helped in such a traumatic situation.

^ who tried to kill it?

my mum used to make cinnamon rolls when we were kids and i loved them. i persuaded her to make some again and having been having 2 every morning for breakfast. amazing.

i saw a programme about that ^ - very interesting

City foxes are scavengers right? Do they even know how to fight?

Silly trampy foxes.

ask the people who's children have been attacked....

^^ look how mangy she is! but i reckon she is extra brave/desperate because she is feeding cubs...

no! highly likely that she will never see him again. if wont know that you mum's place is home and will not want to hang around, especially if the other cats are not very welcoming.

please sign up to this, not just because my OH is working on this project, but mostly because it should not be happening...
