My good mates brother and sister were in the bad crash this morning.
Diana is going to get married in a month - my wife's business did their wedding invitations.
Ricky is a top young guy, lots of fun.
Early this morning was Eid prayers (at the end of Ramadan) and I prayed next to their dad. An hour and a half after it happened and he had no idea of what had happened we were sitting together playing with my daughter - it's bloody terrible.
The driver of the car that caused it apparently did a runner - more details here.

Wasn't there some talk that the other driver may not have been aware of what he did?
But if he knew I hope they catch the bastard!
Best wishes to your friends for a full recovery

That's pretty crap mate. I was driving across the M4 yesterday morning thinking I'd hate to be in the traffic but it brings it home when someone knows the poor buggers in the accident. Here's hoping they get out of it OK
