Liquid Swords Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 21:29 Saturday 17th October, 2009 Dear all, It is with deep regret that we must part with the news that respected forum and community member, Rob G (affectionately known as Tweenierob) passed away earlier today after being involved in a fatal car accident. We have also learnt that Harry (known by all of us as Lamb) is currently in hospital receiving treatment - his condition is as yet unknown. Whilst we await further news of Harry, we felt it appropriate to remain closed as a mark of respect to all those involved. Meanwhile, from all of us at Broomhill Hotel hosting the AGM, we wish to pass on our condolences to all concerned.

Swiper the Fox Posted October 18, 2009 Author Share Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) very sad to hear that, and apparently the driver of the other car in the head on crash was also killed.is there any verified information about what actually happened? Yes Dunc's...two vehicles collided...two lives lost and one other seriously injured, two other vehicles were also involved in a minor role and both drivers of those vehicles were uninjured. As a mark of respect and at the request of his fiancee and family could discussion of the accident details be left till police investigation is completed. Thanks Edited October 18, 2009 by DiRTgarage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
