An hour ago i very nearly became an ex-bogwitch.
Only my super-fast witchy reflexes avoided a head on collision with someone overtaking a cyclist on a fast B road. I swerved up the foot high verge doing about 50mph and he took off my wing mirror and ploughed into the back end of my car. The cyclist buggered off without leaving their details.
I suppose we're both lucky we're alive and unijured, but my car is feeling a bit sad and wounded. :(

Another lucky escape
February 21st, 2009
Good thing there was an 'escape' verge or you would have been an ex-~Bogwitch. Are you OK? Apart from the shock, of course.
He was following some other cars past and then I was just there. I think we were both very lucky it happened were it did. The verge was high (it took off part of my exhaust), but wide and without a ditch.

I'm glad you're safe. Poor car.
How are you feeling?!??!
I'm completely fine though.

And ack! about the car. I swear it's one of the most annoying things about the universe that the more momentous an occurence is (either in a good or a bad way) the more paperwork/organisation is inevitably involved. Which is always pissing annoying.
I've been down this insurance road so many times before too, alas. I might get a courtesy car though this time! That'd be a first.
Ah, you have all this still to look forward to! (hopefully not)
My nerves are like steel! I've had too many accidents...
But at least you're ok.
I'm glad you're in one piece, even if the car took one for you.
((hugs))
Thanks.
