Broken radial bone, still have plate in arm with compression fractures in back at the same time. Separated shoulder hitting plane door frame on way out the door.

Funny Gavin, I was thinking of you today, did a google search and found out it was eight years exactly since you passed. Remember those discussions over beer at The Cumberland Arms, you usually won the arguement....blue skies, fair winds and soft landings friend.

A night of reflection later what really makes this whole situation the pits is that the illness(there are a number) that claimed James is treatable though perhaps never totally curable. Sorry he never got a treatment that worked. Been there myself....

I heard this today in Kabul of all places. Bad news travels far! I went to Trieben in 92 with James to the World's and was very saddened to hear this today.
