We've been missing Sparky for a couple of weeks now.
In one of my posts I said I'd hoped nothing bad has happened to him. Unfortunetaly, it has! Sparky has been seriously injured while preparing a race car in mid December. He has regained conciousness just a little while ago. He will still have to stay in hospital for a couple of weeks. If you like to say something to him or his family, you can do it here. --------------------------------------------- My thoughts are with Sparky, his wife Michelle and his family. Get well soon, Sparky, I miss you. |

That's very bad news indeed.
I hope Sparky makes a speedy and full recovery - his sense of humour is sadly missed. |

I too was sorry to hear that Sparky has been injured. It is another reminder (as if we need it) that the sport we love is a dangerous one for those who participate.
I hope you get well soon Sparky, making a full recovery! |

That's terrible news, but thanks for keeping everyone informed Gerard.
Here's hoping that Sparky is well on the road to recovery soon - as Maisie said, that sense of humour has been missed around here. |

Well I would just like to say to Steve 'Get Well Soon' and also I would just like to say that we might be lucky to still have him here! He could have been killed for all that you know! Anyway I don't want that to be the feeling as RIKB said the sport we love is a dangerous one and the one we all love!

Ouch, sounds bad Sparky. Get well soon, but get yourself moving boy. Go for it, life is short so you have to make the most of it. Let others pity you, and show em what your made of. Hope you`re back here soon!

Well it's now 2 weeks since this thread was started and I for one am still mighty concerned about the welfare of me Sparky chum.
Rather than fill Steve and Michelle's inbox with stuff, do we think another enquiry from Gerard would be appropriate? |

I haven't contacted Sparky's family since I last received an e-mail from his wife.
Since this must have been and probably still is an emotional occurrence I thought it better to leave them alone as much as possible. However, I share Invader's thoughts, and like him and many others, I'm still concerned. Therefore I agree in sending an e-mail to express these concerns to his family. I do not know if the time is right for them to respond, but if they do, I will notify everybody on this board immediately at this forum. |

Good to have you back with us, old boy. Pull up a chair, take the weight off your feet |
