Car crash victim "Sees the light" Well, almost Lol!
I laughed when many years ago I read a letter in the paper from somebody who'd been involved in a serious car smash. In and out of bouts of consciousness, as he was being wheeled out of surgery, he swore bling he'd distinctly remembered the porters s...
