Hi Guys,
I'm Mattius's Dad, some bad news I'm afraid, Matt crashed his Spitfire on the way north, on the A82 just north of Callander on Saturday. Matt is in Stirling Royal Infirmary with compound fractures to his right leg and several other lesser injuries. They operated on his leg for most of last night pinning it all back together again, but he will be going back into theatre tomorrow for some more work to it.
I saw him tonight and whilst still being given blood and drugs etc, is a hundred times better than he was yesterday.
As far as his car is concerned, its a total right off, literally bent in two round a tree, the up side is that because of the combination of roll cage, full harness and importantly side impact bars, his injuries are a lot less than they would have been according to the experts.
It looks like it will be a long haul for him, but he is reasonably cheerful, and already has the nurses eating out of his hand. I will try and keep you updated until he can start responding himself.
