Fortunately, Rocking Rudolph's accident at the weekend was not serious.

The occupants of the other vehicle suffered whiplash and have been released from hospital. Rudolph's trailer was twisted but, thanks to the kind people at Top Line Travel, he is still on the road.

As a veteran fundraiser, Rocking Rudolph was not going to be sidelined easily. His resilience follows in the hoof-prints of his namesake, the red-nosed reindeer who stepped in to save Christmas in Santa's hour of need. The original Rudolph would be proud.
