Sh*t horrible news. Get well soon BB, hope all goes well today.

Flowers and chocs would be a good idea, thought stabilisers may be a better option!

Hi BB.

Im really sorry to hear of your accident. If anyone was going to attack an old deer I would of thought it would of been Bluebiker not you!

We may not of seen eye to eye on every thing in the past but that doesnt mean I dont care, FAR from it! I truely hope you get well soon. You will be sorely missed on Mondays at the Lysley. I hope the bike isnt to badly damaged and you both are up and running soon. At a risk of repeating what everyone else has said if theres ANYTHING I can do to help let me know, hey I will even give you a lift to the Lysley in the car when you get out!!

Take Care and get well soon,

Love

Andrew x

Am really sorry to hear that news BB and can only wish you all the best in a speedy recovery - if you need a pillion anywhere just ask James (not me, I've never taken one!) especially if its to come round for another evening at ours (I'm sure we could persuade David to cook - especially with your injuries!) - yr welcome anytime - keep your spirits up and i'm looking foward to your welcome home ride!!

Take care BB - give me a ring if there is anything I can do!

Gemma and James (he sends his best but has not internet access at present)

Going up to see BB later, spoke to her last night, she seemed to be in a fare amount of pain, not surprising considering, but in good spirits, she's hoping they will operate on her hands to-day, it keeps getting put off, she can't remember much about the accident, not even where, but wants to know where the bike is and how it is, so if anyone has any info can you let BB know, or tell me and ill pass it on later to-day, hope to be going up just after lunch, I'm taking a fan up cos she's cooking in there.

Popped in this afternoon to see BB. Considering what happened, she is suprisingly perky, and well on the mend. Treatment is obviously continuing and many more weeks will be needed for recovery and test results. Hope to visit again later in the week. :)

R1chie
23-07-06, 05:49 PM
good to hear she is on the mend

did you take her a copy of classic bikes?

Dabz
23-07-06, 07:20 PM
went in this afternoon as well and gave her a big card and bunch offlowers on behalf of all of us, with the wiltshire bikers picture inside the card and the thread printed off :)

she's determind to go to the isle of man as planned in 4-5 weeks, typical bonnie!

they had her sitting up for a few hours yesterday too and there is talk of her being out at the weekend but currently only 'talk'

Went to see her yesterday - is very black and blue but in good spirits. They might let her home at weekend if she can manage well enough - both arms bandaged and/or plastered from elbow down. Optic nerve is damaged in her right eye so can't see anything yet, but hopefully all sight will be returning shortly. Still doesn't remember anything after seeing a deer! Was airlifted to hospital, woke up and as she was 2 miles from home when it happened couldn't understand why she was in Swindon hospital and not Bath! (think it was Swindon because of suspected spinal injuries).

Thoroughly determined to go to the Isle of Man, somehow (bike or public transport and then pillion over there)!! :) Is considering herself very lucky that it wasn't 'final whipround' time (her words!).

GixerBoy

Went to see BB's bike today and here is the damage;

Front forks bent (see pic)
R/H hand controls and handle bar damaged.
Headlamp and R/H indicator smashed.
Right hand crankcase damaged but not holed.
Right hand exhaust silencer scraped.
Slight scrape to the right side of the tank.
Front mudguard bent.

I can't see if the frame is bent but apart from the forks its really just cosmetic......
Will being contacting her insurance company tommorrow to get the ball rolling........

Well i'm hoping they write it off and then she can get something decent! :o :o :o ;) :-* This kiss is for Bonnie BTW Dabz......Don't get any funny ideas...... :o ;)

Dabz
26-07-06, 10:29 PM
damn I thought my luck was in then :(

yeh hopefully a write off, but then she'd need a name change. any idea what she'd have her eye on instead?

28-07-06, 08:49 AM
Just an idea...

If BB is out in time, wondered if she might like to go to Jess & Pete's BBQ (I presume thats ok with you both!) so she can see some familiar faces & cheer her up! Or failing that if shes still in the hospital a ride down to visit her depending on numbers etc!

Id personally like to visit her but I dont have any details, cant ring the Swindon hospital and ask which ward is Blackbonnie on! They would think Im stranger than I really am!!

Thoughts please......

Dabz
28-07-06, 12:23 PM
she said this morning that they want to keep her in for another week!

I talked to BB this morning and to be honest amante she has had a stream of visitors and needs time to rest and heal so she can go home, so it would be good if you could wait a wee while to see her. Re going to the BBQ i'm sure she will be there in spirit.

As as for you being strange, we all know that already and hospitals are even better at weeding the weirdo's out :) it took me a while to convince em i'm sane. [smiley=rolleyes.gif] [smiley=rolleyes.gif] :)

Fair enough! It was just an idea. Just miss the old bird I spose! :-/ :'(

If your going over soon just send her my love!

Spoke to BB last night, getting better with each day that passes, sounds more like her old self, I think just a tx now and then is nice, just lets her know she not forgotten.

That's good news. She was looking well when we popped up yesterday. Still many bruises and swelling but as you say, getting better each day. :)

Dabz
02-08-06, 11:49 AM
she's hoping to hear later today about possibly going home today, and is looking forward to starting in her new position as staff on here...oh yeh, spose I'd better announce that!

Hi everyone, just like to say a big thankyou for all the help & support etc over the last couple of weeks, it really is much appreciated. I have been overwhelmed with all your comments & txts etc.

I shall be out of action riding for a while with my plastered arms, broken collerbone, etc. etc but I'll be out as much as I can to meets to keep in touch. As you can see I can still type, albeit very slowly so don't expect rapid response!

I am also pleased to be asked to be a moderator and I hope I can do a good job for you all.

All I have to do now is get fit to go to the Manx GP in a few weeks time. I already have offers of pillion seats so that is good as the Dr didn't look too impressed when I suggested a twist & go!

Regards BB
