F#*ked bug: FINAL UPDATED!!!

555bug · 2004-02-13T07:39:55+00:00

Ok as many of us have read about the tragic accident that happened to two young women this week when a 12 year old chromer decided to crash into there sweet bug. The two girl’s receiver fairly serious injuries and are looking at a good couple of months in hospital. Now I have been in touch with the girl’s father and offered whatever assistance forum members can supply, to which he was most thankful. However at this stage I feel that the very best thing we forum members can do is to restore there faith in people, especially VW people :bounce So what I am proposing is to fill there room with enough flowers and well wishes as possible. T o do this we will obviously need some cash so this is where we come in :kiss if we all could give just a little bit then we can fill that room. To start the ball rolling Aussieveedubbers.com has most graciously donated $100 with the Manx club to follow suit. Perhaps representatives of all Australian clubs could do like wise and we will have enough for the nicest flower display in the history of VW accident survivors. Anyway U2U me with any questions or queries. If individuals want to give some cash then you can either direct deposit into the forums account or send a money order to myself or Brad or Wes. So come on Aussieveedubbers lets show the rest of Australia why we are the very best type of car enthusiasts. Cheers Stephen Added by Admin...

well its been a lot harder that I though it would be to organise giving thes eladies a gift. I have offered them a few alternatives but I guess they are to shy/gracious to accept a gift from strangers. Anyway they are now out of hospital and are getting on with there lives. I have chatted (again) to tthere father and he suggested that the money could be put to use paying for some of there hospital expensis which are not covered by there policies. I think that this is a nice idea and I am now putting it forward to you guys to agree/disagree with. Lastly sorry for being so slack with updates but I have been pretty busy and getting the time to make it to the hospital is scarce. Also there father being a baristor is particularly hard to get in touch with 🙁 anyway thanx once again to all those that have alread offered maoney, and to those that have not deposited the funds, this is the week to do so.

Cheers Stephen

Yes pay the excess hospital expenses is a great idea...
So they are debt free.
Are they up & driving on the road yet?
I hope that didn't put them off VW's for good!!
