After the tweet gained steam (with 3,000 retweets at time of writing) Andrews uploaded this to his website:

"So that tweet about my boy falling over has run away somewhat - which is nice. I should tell you *he's fine*. His penchant for the dramatic turn of phrase is to be admired i think. I simply cannot fathom from where he has adopted such a style."

So there you have it, inspiration can truly come from anywhere. Even a big patch of stinging nettles.
