sludgegulper Posted July 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 Latest is that he is alive. Has broken leg, other injuries as well. On way to GBH now. I really hope the silly season hasn't started already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollian Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 That will explain why the lifeboat went racing to the South end at tea time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islandhopper Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 @Frances144:If it is a German (male) with the initals GM then kick him into his a** and threetimes against his broken leg (plastering off) because I told him about four weeks ago in our forum NOT to go where he wanted to go ...

Pooks Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 Turns out that early reports were maybe a little off the mark (surely not in Shetland!?!?). Not a tourist as such but an offshore contractor based in Sumburgh at the moment. Sounds like he has been very lucky and will probably be ok. This has been shadowed by the announcement of a motorcyclist who had a fatal accident near Brindister tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
