My husband has always been a fan of rally driving (ever since I've known him). On Friday an envelope came through the door that looked interesting (yes I know I shouldn't open them, but he doesn't mind!!). Inside was info for a rally driving school. He knows I can't stand rallying and think it's too dangerous, but he said he just wanted to find out the prices.
To cut a long story short one of his cousins is a rally driver and we found out yesterday that he was in a serious crash. The rally car skidded on some snow and the driver was killed. He died at the scene. Hubbys cousin, fortunately had no injuries.
Hubby has now changed his mind.
I don't know the driver of the car, but I can't imagine how his family felt. When we heard it on TV yesterday and they mentioned the village we live in I instinctively thought of my hubbys cousin and my worst fears were confirmed, although he is ok himself, I dread to think what mental damage your friend dying next to you can cause. My thoughts are with the friends family.
