Three Shires

[wheezing donkey]

Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Hope your ok Amex!


BUT - I must say....how lucky is Wheezy to get to drive Amex's car home...you lucky git!

I did not get to drive it HOME, young Al. All the cars had to be out of the compound at Hodge Close by 18.00 on Saturday as the gate was going to be locked. Having stashed Steve's bumbag & rucksack from the marquee in the boot, I just drove it round to the 3 Shires Inn and left the keys with Selwyn & Elaine to hold behind the bar, as Alison ( Mrs Amex ) was organising a lift up with Amex Junior to pick it up.
Had a quick visit with Steve in the RLI yesterday afternoon ( did not want to intrude for too long, he had quite a family gathering around him, obviously a much loved fella ) as I only live 400 - 500 yards away.
His foot is now back in line with his leg and everything has been "pinned, plated and screwed".
Here's hoping that you make a full recovery Steve, althought it is unlikely to be a "quick" one!
The lovely Mountain Goatess, my mate Andy Farmer ( Fiendsdale R.O.) and I were amongst first half dozen to get up to Steve ( from the 3 Shires Stone ) when he started "screaming and hollering". When I saw the state of his ankle with his foot dangling to one side, I must confess that I nearly "yodelled for Hughie". Andy F played a blinder, ran down to the road, grabbed somebody's cell-phone then hot-footed up Wetside Edge to get a signal and got the first call into 999/Police to alert the MRT.
