 This came as a bit of a shock, so I had to read it twice to make sure.
Just to add my sentiments to those of Dave & Jon; wishing Jules a full and speedy recovery. Take care everyone.

 I would just like to say a big Thank You to Rhossili Coastguards and The Welsh Air Ambulance.
|
|
 Glad you are both (fundamentally) OK, but most of all, hope you make a quick recovery Jules.
I've never had anything THAT nasty happen to me but don't let it stop you getting out & up again once everything's mended!
All the best.
|
|
BTW photos can be seen on the Chat Room. If Dave can set them up in the gallery on here they'll be there soon. (Not for the squeamish)
|
|
 Bloody hell! All the best for a speedy recovery Jules, and well played Stuey.
|
|
 All the best from all the OMers north of the border.
|
|
 Thanks guys, the good news is that the rescue mission today was sucsessful and I have now retrieved 5 quick draws, 4 nuts and a brand new cam :-)
|
|
 Best wishes Jules - hope you get back out there soon.
BTW - I see you are taking the comments in the "More about me" section of your profile seriously! ;-)

Glad to hear you got all your kit back, possibly with interest!. Nothing worse that lying in bed wondering which buggers are rubbing their hands as they retrieve all your lost gear.
Hope your back out and about soon Jules.
|
|
hugs Jules, hope your back on your feet soon xxxx
|
|
 Blimey! Best of luck on a speedy recovery.
|
|
 Jules,
you is hardcore...
injured, and then next day back to get the gear you left, you didn't even leave me enough time to nick it, sorry retrieve it for you ;-)
And you went to work as well (fool on that one :-) but yours is an important job )
Hope you are back climbing soon
|

Thanks again, never went to work Darren, still on hols till monday.
I can walk ok as long as I go slow and dont bend by leg too much. I might have to ring and tell them I will be in on Monday to do paper work though.
And I should thank Stu for running to help me and helping me retrieve my kit.
|
|
Glad everything's turned out OK.
My girlfriend read the article over my shoulder. At one point she gasped: "I wouldn't want them writing that about me!!"
And what was she reacting to?
'a large bulge of fat was coming out of the wound'
tut, women eh?
Seriously though, I wish you a speedy recovery, and well played Stu.
|
|
 Glad you got your gear back Jules :) I think next time I second you I'm going to wear my helmet though ;-).
Stu, good work mate :)
|
|
Michael, tell her the Doc had to trim the fat away before he stitched it up so at least I got free liposuction out of it.
|
|
 Ouch Jules! Sounds painful. Glad you're on the mend. Getting you gear back too? Takes a lot to stop you obviously!
Bit of a drastic way to get liposuction though. Hope you're out and about again soon.
|
|
 Lots of love to you both xxx
Julie - can we form an "OMers who have been impaled" club now? Glad it's not just me any more ;o)
|
|
 Glad to hear that it all ended well and that you got your gear back.
In the words of Monty Python's "Life of Brian"....
"You lucky barstewards"!!!! ;¬)
Seariously though; get well soon Jules and take care everyone.
|
|
Best wishes for a speedy recovery and return to the rock.
