He was air lifted to Palmerston North Hospital with lots of broken ribs and a nasty head injury. He has just been discharged but won't be up to much for quite a while. If you want some more details you can ring or text me on 0272021741.

Awwww hells teeth!! This isn't what I want to be reading Jim! Thanks for letting us know Heather

Glad he has been discharged although I suspect lots of 'quiet time' will mandatory for a wee bit. Like others here, I am not far away if you need anything picked up, dropped off etc and let us know when you are up for visitors.

Wishing you a speedy and full recovery
