I WOULD like to thank the two young men who came to my assistance when I fell off my bicycle during the BBC Stargazing event at St Peter’s School.

In the dark of the winding driveway I encountered a speed bump and then a pothole which threw me heavily to the floor, knocking me unconscious.

I lay there for some time until two Samaritans came to my assistance and helped stem the blood from my head.

I am very grateful to the two gentlemen who came to my aid.
