Sorry to hear the sad outcome Willic. I did a first aid course - for work actually - a little while ago, and have always wondered how I'd feel if presented with an emergency situation like that. I'm sure you did your best. Hope that doesn't sound too patronising, it is certainly not meant that way.
As far as the commute today, it was very windy, and promises to get even more unpleasent and cold as the day wears on. Further north they are expecting snow....
Cheers,
Ed
