Poor Helen had a nasty accident yesterday and a narrow escape. We were having a bank holiday walk on the moor with Charlie and Juliette and family above Belstone - a lovely morning - and as we descended to the car the children ran ahead and swang on the gate , with Helen head planing over it and landing on her head on granite. After a panic and a lot of bood we ended up on Exeter A+E and Helen was admitted and had a minor operation late last night by the plastic surgeons to put her 4 cm deep wound back together. She is home and all safe today, but it is a 24 hours we would rather forget...bless her she was sooo brave. Pictures of the walk and the homecoming are here.

That just sounds terrible. Poor Helen. Hope she's OK and on the mend now.
Love, Richard & the Girls
PS Hope her injuries don't inhibit her ability to play the Headbanz game...
I am so glad to hear that Helen will be OK - that is the kind of story that makes me weak in the knees!
I haven't been in touch but I've thought of you all during your summer birthdays. All is well in Delaware.
Best - Maria
