Just arrived home after the worst Holiday of my life.
Arrived in wales Thursday night, banged my shin as usual on a frame of van, nothing new, seem to do that every time.
started feeling funny later in night.
Ended up in Hospital by Saturday with Blood poisoning in my leg.

Finally gets discharged Tuesday, waiting for wife to pick me up, gets a phone call off her telling me she had crashed the jeep.

So no jeep, off work till next week and now more stressed than before the Holiday.

good news is my caravan is ok, had to get a mate to tow it back for me.

That cellulitis is a horrible thing isn't it?

I had it three times in rapid succession and was put on antibiotics each time.

My sympathies are with you. Hope you get everything else sorted OK.

Thanks for the thoughts guys,

Wife, Daughter & Mother in Law all ok,
Still waiting to hear off insurance about Jeep. If they write it off, it will be the shortest I've ever had a car.
Only bought it on 20th March.

At least that should save you the hassle of determining the value.
Hope it comes out well.
Also hope your leg is working well again now.
