    I remember the "bit" of rain, but failed to appreciate the severity of the situation at the time. Anthrax eh? It's all coming together now.

    Congratulations to all survivors on this thread. It's inspiring stuff.

    I woke up this morning with a slightly tingly throat. Still went to work though.

    Believe that's what they call 'the bulldog sprit'.

    But a moment of respect for the fallen as well. Those whose last forum post was to this thread & were never heard of again. Hats off.

    A little tip-off… I’ve written to Holly Willoughby/Fearne Cotton/someone like that (but not Jimmy Savile), and some of you might be getting a little knock on your door with a tabloid-sponsored prize some time soon…

    You bloody deserve it!

    This is typical of survivors... men of iron, courageous in the face of Death himself, yet so damn modest. Breaks your heart, it really does.

    Think I've got something in my eye .... bit smoky in here too [blub]. Selfless courage always makes me a bit emotional.
