Ouch, nasty stuff.

If she needs anyone to give her a back massage, I'll volunteer ....

Charlie's Vicky's brother surely! I'm sure If he wants a massage he'll ask though

DOH !!!!!

Well, the offer to VBH still stands

(Reminder to self : read articles fully in future)

Hope Charlie isn't too hurt - I understand he's quite a talented driver (up the the point when his talent ran out this time I guess).

NevPugh308 - don't let this scare you off buying a Caterfield (only 'cos I want a go).

The only thing that would put me off buying one would be getting offers of massages from weird blokes on car-related discussion forums !!

Take it easy Charlie, I know you can make a car fly, but that's just ridiculous!
Seriously, get well soon.
See you again at Donington June 20-22?
Wheelchair Ken.

9/05/2002 CHARLIE READY TO RACE AGAIN AFTER THRUXTON SMASH
Charlie Butler-Henderson, whose violent crash brought to a premature halt the second round of the IGC Caterham Superlight Challenge at Thruxton on Monday (7 May), has praised the strength and integrity of his car's chassis.

Now recuperating at his Hertfordshire home after a couple of nights under observation in hospital, Charlie is hoping to make a return to the championship in six weeks.

"I broke a vertebra because of the whiplash and they have strapped me into a neck brace for the next few weeks," he said. "I'm in a bit of pain but everything considered I have been very fortunate. The Caterham proved itself to be amazingly strong and I'm sure that saved me from a worse injury."

Get well soon, OK
