It
wasn't that I didn't see the lorry.
I did
see it. It was big and red.
And
it was in my way.
Now,
last week I learned all about spatial awareness and How
Not To Hit Things.
So, why I wonder, did I decide that I could really fit through the
three inch gap between the approaching car and the lorry?
This,
dear reader, will remain one of those unanswered questions that
litter our universe for eternity.
Andy
executed a swift and perfectly formed Controlled
Stop, which in turn saved me thinking about doing one.
Not that I was. Oops.
There
was another question that was really bugging me, when I stalled
the car on one of the many occasions.
Why
was there still a buzzing noise eminating from the car?
The
engine was off. The radio was off. My brain was overheated yes,
but almost certainly switched off. So what could it be?

| Fellow
Bolly Dolly Patsy could come along for the ride |
Then
I spied a wire coming from the cigarette lighter and followed it's
path to the back seat
where, guess what I found....
This
is a cracker. You'll
love this.
I found
a fridge!
I kid
you not. Andy has a fridge in the back of the
car. I was slightly worried that he'd thought we may get lost (navigation
not being my strong point) and had bought emergency supplies.
But
it turns out that he keeps Diet Coke
in it. Hundreds of little cans, all nice and chilly and ready for
when he needs light refreshment.
I make
a mental note to get one for the mini and keep it stocked with Bolly.
And
finally I come to the cyclists.
I'm not sure whether it was the same one going round three times,
or whether they were all different, as I wasn't looking in my mirrors
properly. Five more minutes in the naughty corner for me then.
But
I knocked them all off their bikes. Whizz, bang, plop, before speeding
off again with not a care in the world.
Or so Andy says.
He
was wearing his sunglasses and although I thought they were
to hide the fact his eyes were shut tight, apparently he saw them.
But
only in his head, by all accounts. So my total today is in fact
3 imaginary cyclists and one invisible motorbike.
Andy
says things like "whoops, you have just hit that cyclist"
in order to demonstrate that I Must Use
my Mirrors Correctly or I could become A
Menace On The Roads.
Either
that or he has a very twisted sense of humour.....
