Thanks all
I'm fine now and on train back to Manchester.
Receiving quite quite a few funny looks thanks to my hospital clothing (mine were cut off me upon arrival as i looked a bloody mess) and also as my face currently looks like i've been through 12 rounds with Tyson.
Still...im in one piece (just) so thanks for all the nice messages i've received, most appreciated.
Phil

Look out
Watch out for a visit by the authorities, Phil. They're passing a law making falling down the stairs an offence, and back-dating it to include your fall.
Who knew that the authorities were allowed to do that??
Anyways, hope you're up and about shortly!

Originally posted by WTFH View PostPhil claims he fell down one flight of steps.
HMRC are claiming that he avoided falling down other steps, so they will be calling round in a couple of years to beat him up to make up for the injuries he didn't get due to him being in a trip avoidance scheme.
Man City have decided not to sign him, because they want players who can fall down of their own accord, act like someone else did it and that they are in pain, then get up again a few seconds later.
Phil I hoped you tripped over in business hours. AlaobI've heard Mel and Jons get well soon card is in the post expect it in about 15 years time

Originally posted by phil@dswtres View PostHi - just quickly logged on from hospital bed as I was told about this thread. All is fine - and ill be back working from Saturday.
The fact that this thread even exists is lovely and v much appreciated.
In short - I ran up some stairs (outside, so concrete ones) and it seems likely that I then fainted and fell backwards down them. The last thing I recall was standing at the top regretting having ran as It made me feel dizzy. Head now been stitched back together and all scans indicate no obvious long term damage. The accident looked a lot worse than the actual damage
Amusingly the concussion meant I spent this morning thinking it was the year 2014 which means for a while in my head I was still working for Counter Avoidance of HMRC.
Everything gradually back to normal and now going to rest so will catch up on emails etc Saturday (for once im taking the sensible route and having tomorrow away from work).

This made me smile - you are unwell and you still logon - take a few days off - from an ex-nurse concussion can take a while to recover from -

We had arranged to see Phil today so perhaps the HMRC undercover types are responsible?
Get well soon.
Had a good chat with him the other night and he is one of the good guys. Get well very soon! We need you.

Originally posted by WTFH View PostIf you've been trying to contact Phil, he's currently in hospital following a serious accident. Tim, his colleague is off on holiday this week, so they would appreciate if you can bear with them at this time, they hope to be back to normal next week.
Get well soon, Phil.
