Another update from Kev, after we just sent him the first batch of cash from the generous donations made already:
"I cant thank you enough ,everybody is being so kind and raising cash is going to help me a lot as i do worry about earning enough and want to get back working asap and that alone is worse than the physical pain . i'm stubborn and dont like to accept ive been knocked on my arse but i have to listen to family and take things more seriously regarding my recovery so i wont rush back into it .
It cheers me up loads that so many people care about me .
Sorry i didnt get back yesterday , this pc is very frustrating as its got about 1 gig of memory so crashes all the time .Should be getting a replacement Imac on insurance soon so that will be something to look forward to as i'm used to using a more powerful machine , its funny because my 2003 pc isnt up to scratch and nor am i
Spent three hours in the garden today with the jetter and cleaned all the patio and paving and it looks loads better and its cheered Jackie up too .was very disorientated at times though and right eye is wonky and i look like one of those dogs with saggy eyes LOL
Will do some more out there tomorrow and lets hope it warms up soon

"
Kev's a tough old boy but this is starting to affect him psychologically now as well as physically, and with mounting bills and the always loveable glacial speed of insurance claims, he is struggling. We can't wait to get the goblin horde into production so that we can help him out more, but meanwhile the collection tins will be out at Salute, there'll be strictly limited GoblinAid badges available at £1 a pop, and we'll be producing limited goodies with the GoblinAid banner logo by Marty Whitmore for auction, too. Salute prep notwithstanding, we're hoping to finally get a couple of auctions live on the eBay shop this evening.
Meanwhile if you have got a spare couple of squid then please, please forward it on to goblinaidATfenrisgamesDOTcom. Every donation, no matter how small, will really help Kev out.

Oh, and a PS on seeing the new banner artwork: "Nice one , its spot on , would like to make a few of them especially the rams helmet one ....."
