[chickengrandma-2008]

Isn't that just an awful feeling when you hear news like that!  So glad they're both ok Von. XX

[chickengrandma-2008]

SNAP!!!

[merc1_clocks]

So glad they're safe pcc

I remember my daughter driving into a telegraph pole to avoid a rabbit...the police coming - just a nightmare.

The pole fell right through the roof of the car, but thankfully she was so slim, it missed her by inches.

I know when I saw the car, I couldn't believe she lived to tell the tale.

That was many years ago, & didn't put her off driving at all.

You just never stop worrying about them, no matter their age

[notgrumpyreally]

I had a bad accident when I was just 21 and it has made me an over cautious driver ever since. My car was hit by a double decker bus and rolled. It was my fault. I remember putting my hand up to my face and it was all wet, sticky and warm. I thought it was blood then realised I'd stuck a can of coke between the brake and the seat! I was very lucky, whiplash, three broken fingers and for some bizarre reason cuts on my bum where the shattered windscreen had gone down the back of my jeans! I was in Leeds (shouldn't have been!) and I just turned right straight into its path on the brow of a hill. What really scared me was that I thought I was driving really carefully because I didn't know the roads. It made me a bad driver really as I don't trust anyone to not make a stupid mistake.

[bitsnknots]

Sorry about the accident PCC.  Hope that they will both be alright.  It must have been an awful shock.

[stroppy*cow]

PCC - glad they are both o.k. - cars can be replaced, people can't.

I am cold, wet and miserable - blasted weather. Had to go to A & E, of course the second I got out of the front door the heaven's opened. By the time I got in the car, I had very few dry bits. Got to hossie, the rain had eased, but the second I opened the car door, it threw it down again. Was drying off a bit when they said I could go home, but got soaked again when I went to the car.
 As I undressed this puddle of water formed - you could wring out my underwear it was so wet.

I am now in bed, with my heat pad and my microwave hottie, trying to thaw out.

[petitecalicocat]

Thanks everyone .

  Son says the garage told him they think the insurance will write it off because it rolled on it's roof , assessor still has to examine it yet though .  

Just plucked up nerve to look at the pic on his phone  

Hope your warmer now  Stroppy , this weather is awful its none stop rain here too

I expected to wait ages...got in and out in half an hour!!! well I would wouldn't I seeing that the doc didn't have any appointments and was just seeing to the open surgery peeps....what is the point in that?????? this is why I couldn't get an appointment with her for over a fortnight. I can't make head nor tail of this system now. All this just to review a pescription

[bitsnknots]

Holds out plate and spoon.  Loves crumble.  Yum yum.

The pain from the skin cancer isn't too bad at the moment.  My mum and I very often say that we couldn't make half a good body between the pair of us.  I very often say that if I was a horse, I would have been shot some time ago.  Never mind.  Things could be worse I suppose.

[stan3502]
