Woopie, sounds like its all going in the right direction 

[john and helen]

I hope so, but i won't count my chickens yet, there is always something lurking around the corner...

i wan't to be the optimistic one..... but we all know how those pockets of bad luck tends to find there way in....

for instance..ive been waiting for a nice cheque from one of my customers.... to pay my basic bills.... he has gone away for two weeks in the sun 

anyway! what will be will be

Be good to know the lender you found when/if you test them out for delivery aswell as willingness in principle..

well i have excepted the offer on the house we are selling   
good news 

bad news..had a call from helen whilst at work.... she said this morning Alex (my stepson) didn't come home last night... i replied..he is 20 ..there are females around .... turns out he came off his bike and smashed his shoulder and face in..stitches to the forehead and looks a right mess....

it seems for every bit of good news..there is a come down ...at least no bones are broken

[Fleecewife]

The first time I fell on my backside off a bike, my Dad just said - 'you're not a true biker until you've crashed'.   At least Alex hasn't got any lasting damage, just a bit of pain, so he should learn a thing or two from that.
 
It's just a blip in your progress.   I'm enjoying following this.

Great news about the offer. As fleecewife has said the accident seems just about par for the course for a biker. He sounds a bit beaten about but hopefully not too badly affected. I expect his pride will be sorely dented though.

[john and helen]

not as straight forward as it seems....  he may of been hit by a car... the mountain bike is wrecked...
alex can't remember a thing..all he says is..he left work at 11pm started riding home, and woke up in hospital

I think not remembering is quite common after an accident. Certainly after my car accident I wasn't aware of anything until I woke up in hospital. Whatever happened in the gap never came to me afterwards either. The for brigade, who cut me out of my car, were able to give me a lot of information but that part of my memory never returned. They do say its a safety effect so that you don't have nightmares over it.


Hopefully it won't affect his memory any more than that.   

[Fleecewife]

Ah - a bicycle crash     I thought you meant a motorbike.   
 
I hope they find the car involved and I hope he doesn't have a head injury.  Some bits of memory should come back, such as part of the ride home, but hopefully not the crash itself.   
 
It always puzzles and infuriates me that we seem to accept the huge accident rate on our roads as par for the course.

[Lesley Silvester]

Nasty. Hope he is on the mend already. 

[john and helen]

any excuse for me to  get the camera out

Ouch, it looks painful but could have been so much worse. He is very lucky.

[darkbrowneggs]

House is all sounding good, sorry about the accident, but lets hope that all it well and he gets over it all fine.  I sure everything will work out great.  Think positive
