I must have called just after Kerry then.  |-)

Of course, you did tell me, but I was far more concerned with Jill's
condition at the time.  Temporary amnesia is not uncommon, but hers was
rather more severe than normal, as you've doubtless since learned.

Jesus, must have bent the forks and possibly the frame as well.  Is it
being written-off then, or are they fixing it?  If written-off, you may be
able to buy the wreck from the insurers, and repair it yourself (for a
profit).
