Default Some photos of Marks accident.

I dropped Mark off home about an hour ago and he is ok but a bit sore, when I first saw the car on its side it was very worrying but when we got there he was ok and was trying to get out of the car, he was very lucky as you will see from the pics. He took loads of pictures himself but these are just a few I took.

It was a bit of a fake smile... at the end of the day mate, I climbed out of the car with a bump on the head and cuts to one of my hands, could have been alot worst.
