Any accident you walk away from is a good one in my book.

Hope you knee gets better.

Well on the mend Thanks  :)
I managed a hobble into town today so if I can do that I can stand long enough to paint  up the remaining Brigade Models Hadrians' Wall packs.

Definitely "Totaled" as we say here. Glad you are basically OK - as pilots say any landing you walk away from is a good landing.
Of course if you lot didn't insist on driving on the wrong side of the road.... :D

Really glad to hear you're OK, KB !

Stroll on......That does look like a heavy 'smack'.

Cheers - Phil.

Wee update. Swelling went down and bruising started to come out but even with a stick getting about was difficult. It's only a mile into town and every time I got back home the knee was killing me.

Went to see the GP this morning who referred me up to the hospital. Doctor there says " Knee's not broken,if it was broken you wouldn't be able to walk. I'll send you for X-rays anyway."
Back to A&E after X-ray where Doctor say " I'm afraid you've broken your kneecap !!" Get a full leg cast tomorrow.

Looks like I'll have plenty of time for painting figures now  :)

I felt like a murderer when I wrote off my first car.
