Very sad news mate, Katie (my wife) heard the first reports on the radio last week and called me worried about the fact we are always working under the hoist....very sorry to hear you lost a good friend. Used to see his nice ghia around palmy every now and then, I'm sure he'll be missed by everyone who knew him.

very sorry to hear mate, also being a person who daily works under cars on hoists it really brings it home how quickly and easily this sort of thing can happen.A deadset tragedy.
