Funnily enough I nearly wiped out a cyclist last night - the rocket scientist was riding on the wrong side of the road, wearing all black, with no light. Luckily I saw him at the very last second and swerved round him, but I bet he let out more poo than I did... Silly twunt.
Anyhoo, Mr Brain Juice. He was let out yesterday, but is not out of the woods yet by any stretch of the imagination. He has been told he cannot drive for 6 months, can't fly for 2 months and cannot do any exercise for 6 weeks. The hearing damage question is still up in the air, it may improve as his skull fracture heals, but they are not certain.
On the plus side, the police are now involved and apparently have the incident on CCTV. They think they have an idea who it is. They did state they were quite keen to get a conviction on this one due to the nature of the damage to my friend. (If someone can do THAT much damage with one punch, they are obviously trained in boxing or similar and if out on the town with that sort of attitude, may as well be carrying a knife) My friend will be due compensation for his injuries, and has offered to pay me back my wasted money for the Euro-trip so I am not out of pocket for his incident, which is nice and a weight off my mind.
So, very sorry to Badger, as he was the clear leader (although I really wanted to take Yuddles) but it seems the whole trip is being cancelled.
I've actually met Chris n shook his hand. This fact is still causing slight issues in my trouser dept....
