Just heard some news about Jock Scot

**Cynthia** · 21st May 09, 05:28 AM

I noticed he hadn't been online for a few days so I thought I'd send a PM since we occasionally chat. I received a PM this morning, but it was not from him, it was from his personal assistant. It seems there has been an accident. Here is what I was sent:

He was critically injured in a freak accident on his estate, on the 9th of May, and was airlifted to hospital. He has been in intensive care for nine days, in a coma, but I am delighted to announce that he has "come round" and it is hoped that he will make a recovery, in time.

I hope that he has a very quick and full recovery. My thoughts are with him and his family. He's a wonderful gentleman, and I know I enjoy having him with us here. Looking forward to his return!

Thanks for your outreach to him and letting us know, Cynthia. I shall add my prayers to those of others here for a quick and full recovery.

No, his PA... I think that means personal assistant? Not sure if there's a different meaning over there, but that's what I've always assumed that stands for. Hope that explains it

Not that it matters, but could PA mean Physician Assistant?

Thank you so much, Cynthia, for passing on this news.

That's terrible! I hope he gets well soon! Yeah, I think PA probably means 'Personal Assistant'.

Thanks Slohairt! I was pretty sure, but not 100%... I'm on my first cup of coffee so I'm a bit groggy still. That was the first thing I saw online when I woke up this morning, and it was a bit of a shock
