I am proud of him Colin. He was in plaster from his neck to his waist for a long time. And was unable to turn his head/neck after the accident, so had to move his whole body to look to either side. His right arm wasn't ever very strong afterwards, but he did pick himself up, and started again.

It's one of those things that looking back, I realise what a very strong man he was. He was of the generation that men were the breadwinners or nothing. And he was out of work for about 4 years, which I think almost destroyed him.

Sorry I'm getting a bit maudlin, he's always on my mind at this time of year as his birthday was 31 December.
