Hey, cool, does this mean my catalogue's in the post then :)? As it
turns out 
I was cleared to return to work a few days after I sent the letter to
GZG, 
which I wasn't expecting. It turns out my according to my GP, far from
my arm 
needing rest he actually thinks typing (or trying to type ) with it will
be 
good physiotherapy..

I am happy to report that the accident was nowhere near fatal although I
did 
look a bit of a state for a week or two. I don't know what the stats are
but 
given the laws of probability it would now seem that Matt is actually
less 
likely to have an accident than anyone else. Not that I would suggest he

takes up bungie jumping or anything. It's my experience that probability

doesn't like people taking the mickey.

Thanks for the thoughts everyone.
