Morgs Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Sh!t... Not good. Lots of questions but obviously the main concern is the welfare of all involved. Aaron, hope you are OK big man, speedy recovery!!

Blitz Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Duncan let me know that SAU has sent a care package to Aaron courtesy of Nick's delivery service. Sounds like poor Aaron might be in hospital for a little bit while they get his injuries sorted. I'll be cutting some DVD's of our club event footage over the weekend and baking some cookies to bring to him next week. Maybe I'll cut a season or two of top gear for him as well. If anyone else is interested in contributing to the second care package drop post up in this thread. Just imagine being stuck in bed and how boring that would be. What can we bring him to help him pass the time? We're a creative bunch so let's keep the ideas flowing. Eric you are an absolute champion mate! I have just sent you a pm with some details. He expects he will be in hospital for at least 2 weeks at this stage and still has surgery pending on his other foot so there will be a length recovery period ahead. I passed on everyones well wishes and he was very appreciative of the support Cheers, Nick Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/366206-serious-accident-on-f3/page/2/#findComment-5845200 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTR-N1 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I can loan Aaron a laptop for a month to play those DVDs of yours Eric. I'll supply a set of earphones to go with it because it might not be kosher to play the 'racy' stuff in an orthopaedic ward in earshot of accident victims & their visitors. I still feel sorry that Aaron took a wrong turn on the R34 GT-R 10th Anniv (now that I know who he is).

Pezhead Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 So Aaron, is it ok for me to burn the video files on DVD in computer format rather than DVD video format? Will be easier but then you can only watch them on the computer. If that's ok I and just start dumping and burning a whole stack. If you prefer standard DVD player type ones will just take a little longer for me to compile them.

Pezhead Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Hey Aaron, I haven't heard from Blitz so shall I drop care package #2 off to you Tuesday after work? I've got 5 seasons of top gear, misc movies and all the SAU event videos I could find. Also a few choc chip cookies - yes, their Yankee cookies. Not Biscuits. Lol Let me know if that will be ok. I can drop off to reception to respect your privacy if you like.
