Thankfully, she's OK, and also thankfully, she wasn't driving the Scoob!!
Car is (was) a Citroen Xantia, and she skidded on a greasy road, lost control of it going up a notorious hill near us, and ended up flipping it througha fence, rolled it, and came to rest right way up.
Car looks like a write-off, but we'll see. It's being recovered as I type, and I've got her home from hospital, but very shocked, and bruised.:

Glad to hear your wife is ok.
Possibly time to buy her her own scooby - better handling and brakes.

Good luck m8 and pass her our regards.

Thanks to all who posted good wishes/commiserations.:
The car is defo written off, according to the bodyshop it's at, so I have to try and get a hire car for her out of the insurance until they settle. They seemed to think this morning that we'd be OK to have one.

Wife is now Ok, and talking a return to work tomorrow, but THAT decision will be down to yours truly!!

Dan: Bl**dy Sawcliffe Hill, where most of 'em happen. The notorious A1077, which North Lincs Council, and the local Police road safety officer, swear blind is NOT a dangerous road, it's just poor driving. What, ALL of the accidents?????[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Glad to hear your other half is OK !

Takes some time to shake off though ! - a few hot cups of tea and a day off could well be in order....

Regards,

Mark

Sorry to hear about that Alcazar, but glad that your wife is ok. Nasty shock when something like that happens.
