Six year old grandson in A&E....

He should be okay, AP.....do we know if Tyson Fury was in the vicinity?

P.S. Does this mean you will miss out on the  bowling and lunch at Xscape?

Should be ok.
I was in A&E recently and survived.

Thanks TL.

Just got back from seeing him, and he hadn't gone to his mothers'.

He was playing footy outside with James, and somehow fell backwards onto the block paving.

He was just laid prone, and when James picked him up he was just limp, and his his eyes rolled backwards.

Very distressing for James, as he thought he could die!

Ambulance and paramedic were there in ten minutes, and he was coming round when they got to A&E.

Fortunately he checked out ok, but what a horrible experience!

What a fright, good to see he is ok.

Loosing balance and falling over can happen to the best of us at this time of year.Good to see hes already practicing for when hes older

It sounds like he takes after his Grandad

Really pleased to hear he is ok

Good luck to the lad.

Thanks Diva. He probably did it with more style than me.

Thing is that when I got the message this morning, James had played it down somewhat, and it was only when I got the whole story
that I realised how bad it had been!

It must have been awful for the lad...having a day out in Pontefract.

Thanks dixie.

I think we will have to get used to injuries in the future, as he is well into sport.
Brilliant little footballer, and James is a qualified coach too.

Now he's also into cricket, and I bought him a face-guard helmet and pads for Christmas.

Next will be tennis, and then golf, hopefully.

No day out in Pontefract (actually Glasshoughton) for any of us unfortunately!

Lucas has gone to his mother's (aka "Nettle Face") and we were stuck in traffic, with two mile tailbacks on the M62, in both directions, heading for Xscape!

I tried to hit it via Castleford, but ground to a halt on the way down, and  gave up on the idea of parking on site so went to B&Q.

Exchanged gifts and abandoned the day.

It took half an hour to get back to the M62. We should have known!!!

The place is a victim of it's own success!

Pleased he's ok AP.

Good news he is ok.
You need to reassure the lads it was nobody's fault.  Accidents happen.

Glad to read the lad is OK.

Thanks guys.

It just reminds one of how fragile we are!
