I was cycling with a friend of mine in Chilworth Woods when I attempted a jump that I maybe could have attempted as a 16 year old boy, but not as a middle aged man. I ended up flying through the air and don’t recall much, apart from landing on my collar bone. I had a tension pneumothorax and were trying to locate us. I was in and out straight away was in a great deal of pain of consciousness, but recall the feeling and couldn't breathe.

Fortunately, it was just an ordinary ambulance ride on this occasion! 2 Love Your AIR AMBULANCE Month In October we launched our first ‘Love Your Air Ambulance Month’, asking our supporters to show their appreciation for the work carried out on a daily basis by our Paramedics, Doctors and Pilots. We wanted to see how much money could be raised during the month, calling upon our supporters to get involved with everything from sponsored silences to cake sales, dressing up and marathons. We appealed to local companies to get behind the campaign, asking individuals to step forward as company ‘Ambassadors’ for the month, spurring on their colleagues to help a life saving service. DS Medical, Caffe Nero and Sentinel Housing Association were some of the companies to get involved.

  • THE LAST SPIKE IS DRIVEN! the PACIFIC RAILROAD IS COMPLETED! II the POINT of JUNCTION IS 1,086 MILES WEST of the MISSOURI RIVER, and 690 EAST of Vi SACRAMENTO CITY
    ATIONAL GOLDEN SPIKE CENTENNIAL COMMISSION OFFICIAL PUBLICATION MBPPP GOLDEN SP KE CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION COMMISSION "What is past is prologue. ..." Shakespeare's words epitomize the spirit of the nation's railroads as they look to the challenges of the future while celebrating the centennial of an achievement that still stands as one of the great milestones in American history. That event was the completion of the first transcontinental railway system with the Driving of the Golden Spike at Promontory, Utah, on May 10, 1869. It was hailed at the time as an impossible dream come true. And, indeed, it was. Its significance was summarized by the late President John F. Kennedy when he said: "We need not read deeply into the history of the United States to become aware of the great and vital role which the railroads have played in the opening up and developing of this great nation. As our frontier moved westward, it was the railroads that bore the great tide of America to areas of new opportunities and new hopes." The railroad industry is justly proud of its past and its contribution to the growth, development and economic might of America. But, again, what's past is prologue. Railroadmen see vast changes occurring in their industry. Today — a hundred years from Promontory — the Iron Horse has lost most of his passen­ ger train glamour. But he's still the workhorse of the transportation stable, hauling almost as much freight as all the newer modes combined. New all-time freight records in 1968 are a significant keynote to the future in railroading.

It is largely the sort of ‘summer’ weather that confuses foreign tourists, makes a mud bath out of music festivals and stops play at Wimbledon. The perfect sort of weather to leave Britain behind and jet off to sunnier climes for a nice long field campaign: as I wistfully gaze at the grey skies I wish I were packing my notebook and field gear ready for departure. Those of you who are setting out for fieldwork during this Northern Hemisphere summer will probably be aware that it is not a walk in the park, as my initial rose-tinted memories lead me to believe.
