according tot he news he has got better and is in a stable condition but with a logn way to go!

Clarkson walked in to his room and first thing he said to hamster was 'the reason you crashed is because your a crap driver' which made hamster smile! class lol!

the support he has recieved in the past 3 days has been immense!

link to the fund raising site for the air ambulance in aid of hamster! http://www.justgiving.com/PHRichardHamm ... ationtable has been doing the rounds of so many forums! a true wealth of support!
