he was a well loved and well respected part of ft.com and a few other sites as far as i know.... known as elm_us to everyone who knew him. a lot of ppl have shed a lot of tears over this tragedy, its dreadful even imagining how it feels to find your child like that, i cant even put it into words.

an unfortunate accident, i cant really type much more cos i'll start weeping again but it was really really awful.

Don't think its the same girl.

The guy was Robert, she was Jamies girl, hense the name

No one should have to see that happen, especially his father.

Very sad.

There was a memorial BBQ for Rob today.

Here's the original thread if you want to pay your respects.

He was a really nice, honest, genuine guy.

Rob was a very close friend. He always wanted a 2.1 16v Zetec Turbo Fiesta. So sad the first day he brought the car this happened. It was his birthday only the other day aswell. I went to the scene of where it happened and was told that there were several other fatal accidents that took place at exacty the same location......fookin adverse camber.........government spend so much money redoing roads that there is nothng wrong with however when there is instances like this where people have died again and again they do fuck all about it.

RIP Rob

Thanks - Sunny.
