Well it certainly has not been the holiday I expected. For those of you who have been wondering why there has been deafening silence here … it is NOT due to holidays, but rather to misfortune. Rather than recite the story, please visit here. But briefly, my father-in-law was involved in a very serious cycling accident … he is recovering slowly, but it has been a very emotional time (I am sure you can imagine).
I would like to thank all my friends and the many others who have left their best wishes — in particular, CK, David, Ann, Paul, Luc, Marcus, Tim, Gianandrea, Mack, Tammy (c’mon Tammy get a blog), Lewis, Greg and Cam.
You are loved and sooo many bloggers are supporting you through posts, comments, (virtual) hugs and prayers. You make the blogosphere better and we’re here for you.
I am so sorry for this tragedy but glad to here that recovery is happening. Blessings.
Gavin,
Send your entire family our Love. We are all thinking about you!
Oh Gavin. I’m very sorry to hear it. I’ll be thinking about you and your Father-in-Law.
Gavin, I’m with CK and David. You and your family are in our hearts.
Here’s hoping the physical and emotional recovery can continue for everyone.
Good to hear from you, Gavin. Sending everyone Our good wishes and love.
All our support and good thoughts from here as well, Gavin.
Gavin. I’m so sorry to hear about your father-in-law’s accident. I’m thinking of you and all your family.
Why in the world doesn’t Tammy have a blog? Not having one is so 2005. Tell her she gets an instant addition to our FOGroll if she starts one.
(If that’s not incentive, I don’t know what is.) 😉
All my best to you and yours, Gav. I’m glad to hear Noel is recovering, albeit slowly.
Gavin – speedy recovery to all.
Peace
Mark
Gavin,
You are an inspiration and a great guy and the blogosphere is simply returning some karma credits you’ve earned.
All my best to you and your family and obviously Noel and the other injured riders.
Here’s to hoping ’07 is a fantastic year- full of speedy recovery and more great rides for all.
Thanks Cam … your comment made me laugh!
Mark, Tim, Helen and Diana … thanks for your kind words and positive thoughts.
It’s very touching to look at Noel’s guest book and see the many folks from all around the planet who are pulling for his speedy recovery.
Sending you and your family positive thoughts and warm wishes from across the world…Hang in there and remember to take care of yourself, too.

Gavin, I hope everything goes well, and his health continues to improve. My thoughts are with you and your family.
We can’t wait for Noel to get better so we can get your full attention again. We’re selfish like that. 🙂

Gavin, I’m so sorry to hear that this happened to your father-in-law, especially at this time of year. I wish him a speedy recovery and your family a healthy New Year.
Happy to lend my support, Gavin. Wishing Noel a speedy recovery and a healthy New Year.
