Graham will be out of action for
a few days due to a minor traffic accident while riding his Vespa.
He has broken some ribs (7 of them), but is in good spirits. Doctors
are telling him he will be out of action for at least the next 3 days.
Stay tuned…
Don't rush it back to riding then, good luck for a speedy recovery. We will all miss your present I'm sure.
