Thread: Surfs up! For the parents of young kids. Be warned!

Glad all ended well Mate.
Sending you good thoughts to relax. Yours are young and you are going grey? Man i ain't got no hair left!
Hang in there. We look after them now and they look after us later.

Glad it all turned out ok, and sorry to hear about the various scares, but at least they were only scares.

Bike helmets are law here, even if the fine for not wearing one is negligible, mostly everyone wears one.

A helmet wouldn't have saved the eldest from the broadside that would have happened had the car not stopped...Mind you, I would have left a large dent in it I my headlong rush to get to her first .


Thanks for all the well wishes Gents. I'm back to my calm, only slightly irrationally paranoid self again. I would rather live with a thousand scares like that than the loss of one of my girls. Usually, I'm the one that this sort of thing doesn't happen too though. I spent too long in the protection business, and situational awareness was always high priority. I guess I've slipped a bit now that it's been a few years out of the game.
