    I think I might be about to bring everyone on a downer, but I need to share this.

    One of my work colleagues has just been hit by a bus! I didn't see the accident, just afterwards and as I knew who she was they wouldn't let us leave.

    Big head injury (lots and lots of blood), pain in her back. She was awake and talking, and could feel everything, but it's just so horrible.

    The Bus didn't stop for the red light and just ploughed into her....

    I'm sorry for sharing, but it's just shaken me a bit.

    OMG Lucy ~ I hope she is ok ~ its all good that she is feeling pain though (if that makes any sense) and awake.

    She is in my thought ~ are YOU ok?

    I'm ok. I think, I didn't see it. But afterwards is terrible, because you can't do anything. Other than feel like your getting in everyones way.

    I am now, just had something to eat. And I am trying to sort my desk out, but shocked looking people just keep walking passed my desk.

    I think maybe you should go home Lucy ~ do you have a reasonable manager?

    I don't have one in!

    There are all out of the office, and I have to much work to be doing. I'm ok. It's just not very nice.

    Lucy, I'm sorry to hear about the accident, how horrible. Hope she has a quick recovery.

    Well this seems completely trivial now but I arrived at baby clinic and I was too late.....er.....a whole day too late....... :doh:

    I am so stupid :o
