Roadrunner Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 1) driving home from work this morning, i was first at the lights at a light controlled round about (m62/ knowsley expressway), as always as lights turned green looked up and check oncoming traffic had stopped - well it hadnt, an articulated lorry with trailer carried on straight through reds with smoke pouring from rear trailer wheels, assume it was brakes locking! Poor bugger did manage to stop for next set of lights......... 2) popped over to visit the old folks, crazy old bird pedestrian stepped straight out infront of me, no time to check mirrors, lucky there was nothing behind me as i executed a perfect emergency stop and the old duck never even bothered to look at me! 3) giving it a little welly (and i mean a little - like 40 in 30) to keep revs up while going up hill, idiot pulled out of junction, that I know has a clear view, just ignoring me totally, braked hard, rear end slipped, but the gorgeous scoob got it back! luuuuuuuuurve! You will be glad to know ive locked car up safely for night now!
warby Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 Think you should have a couple of days in now and stay wrapped up.
Roadrunner Posted June 23, 2006 Author Posted June 23, 2006 yep, maybe not even safe to get out of bed! but what if the large and heavy mirror above bed comes crashing down, or the bed its self collapses, or my pj's strangle me or the roof comes in - is anywhere safe? lol
Jenni Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 log on here for the CADS dating line.... LOL [] Glad you are ok though Clare, you've had 3 no more now!
Roadrunner Posted June 24, 2006 Author Posted June 24, 2006 Three isnt the number for bad luck after all - rats bottoms! 4) watched a girl not bother to look before pulling out of a side street on me, luckily was doing only about 30 mph and had spotted her. Much squealing of tyres and brakes, but no contact, and she had the good grace to put her hand up to me. Took me about 20 mins and 3 ciggies to stop shaking though - 2 emergency stops in 2 days - yep Im cursed! surely the silly burgers can hear me coming even if they dont see me!
