Thanks again. Nice to know the golf community stick together. I don't think Tim's family intend to sue as they are all good friends. It was after all an accident and martin was and still is one of my closest friends. We were all wearing seat belts at the time. Its the only reason I'm still here to tell the story. From what the police have told me when we hit the wall the car went directly up.when we hit the floor the roof creased down the left side hitting Tim in the head but I only received a glancing blow because my belt got wrapped round my neck and kept me down. I had a lot of luck that day. The first person on the scene was an off duty paramedic who witnessed the crash and was with us within 30 seconds. his quick thinking and prompt arrival is the only reason I'm here today. :'(

You are very lucky then. A lot of people would sue, they dont have any standards. Best nt to think about what might have happened, cos you'd be wondering all your life. Best thing is to try and get on with your life, but thats probably easier said than done eh!? I bet your thinking, it always happens to other people?! And your lucky that you weren't in a convertable, that same sort of thing happened on the A303 a few years back, lets just the roof didn't hit her head, the floor did. You can guess that the head stayed where it was, but the body didn't. It can be good to look at others more unfortunate, to realise you were Damn lucky.

Really sorry to hear about this, and I have a lot of sympathy for what you are going through, as a very similar thing happened to me about 12 years ago. Fortunatly, not being able to recall any of the event helped go a long way in my revovery. Memories are often forgotten, but people never should be.
