Hilary Seabrook - writer, podcaster, musician

A big decision: I'm moving on and can't face rehashing the accident again. At some point, I need to write down what happened. Right now, it's enough to know that I'm alive and the Police acknowledged that I could not have done anything different and was lucky to get out relatively unscathed. Shame my no-claims bonus is probably in bits.

I succeeded in catching up with clients and jobs today. Shattered at the end of it.

I am finally beginning to feel a lot better now. I intend to back-track and add photos etc for the days that things actually happened. The car crash was on 7 November and I still have a sore right hand and left ribs, but I am alive. Despite several people telling me that people don't come out of crashes like that. No broken bones and everything else will heal in time. Tomorrow will see me start at my desk, having been unable to write or focus for more than a week. We'll see how long I last and how much I achieve. What I AM grateful for is just being here.

When they came to take away my car, this is what the garage found.

This is the first several people knew about my accident .

Fantastic piece of work from Steve - commissioned by Southwark council right behind Tate Modern.

Big Spirit always puts on a good performance, and tonight was no exception. Three short plays featuring young people aged 15 to 19 showed acting and directing skills at their finest. Exceptionally well rehearsed and performed as usual.

Last night was a clash of musical loves. I managed to get down to see a few bands at Club 85 - a great little venue in Hitchin. Bumped into a few friends, as well, which is always good. However, whilst there, I suddenly received a deluge of texts and tweets about the Weller documentary being shown on BBC 4. Snippets of me from 1983 and 1984 showed just how appalling my 'dancing' was. A nice blast from the past, though. Which all just serves to remind me that music is music, whether it's live, recorded or on TV. I'm so lucky to have had that experience of playing in The Style Council and thank PW for giving me that opportunity. Good times and some GREAT music.

One of the best things about working in AB's offices is the morning walk past Tate Modern. Tracing its changes over the last 12 months is amazing. Especially on a sunny November morning like this.

Must take a photo. New wallpaper stripping device. Doesn't take much to make me happy.
