03/08/2007 | GW4BLE This weekend was supposed to be Single Band 40 meters!, but things didn't quite
go to plan.....

Late Friday evening (local time, just an hour or two before the contest) my
wife had a RTA (road traffic accident), fortunaetly she wasn't too badly hurt
but did suffer whiplash and pain to her lower back area and was attended to at
the local hospital.

A couple of hours after we arrived back home she insisted I get on the air and
make at least some Qs, and at various times over the weekend I did get in the
shack and make a few runs here and there - - this was more so on Sunday, than
Saturday, with a couple of hours running 20 meters late afternoon/early
evening.

Anyway, today Mandy is feeling a little better although with whiplash will take
some time before she is 100%. Could have been a lot worse, and anyway there's
always another contest next year!
