How apt your signature block! - fortunately the injuries are not any worse - but still a horrific thing.
Yet were it not serious it would fit well in a comedy

Oh bugger, that's bad news at his age - I think he's 80.
The tragedy of old age is not that one is old, but that one is young.

I'd hate to be that lift supplier.
In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular.

Well I admired him as a driver, but as an individual I think he stinks.
The phrase "look before you leap" springs to mind in regard to the comment (when they opened on the third floor while the lift was still a floor further up.)

Despite the severity of his injuries, his wife Lady Moss reports him to be in high spirits
I totally misread the last sentence and was going to comment that i bet she was in high spirits! the insurance money will be nice.
Then i re-read it.. so.. I bet HE is in high spirits.. the insurance money will be nice
