Happens in 3's

In a 51 mile drive today I saw

1. a Reliant Robin that had just been set on fire (I presume) in full flame.
2. a two car accident which, had I been 5 mins earlier leaving .....
3. A car on its side in the ditch with Police car nearby, recently happened.

That's a lot of accidents for one person to see in one day, innit?

Some newsperson I am ... didn't take one picture.

I saw one in the Cotswolds. Try as i might to warn the oncoming drivers to the carnage on their side around the next bend,,,,,,

You'd think they might imagine, at the very least, that you're warning them that there's a speed trap and they'd slow down, huh?

Oh, they slowed down allright. Very quickly by the sounds of the sickening crunch I heard in the distance......

When driving I have a rule... trust the other driver's judgement. I'm not sat where they are so I can't see what they can. If they are doing 25mph on a 40mph rpad, it must be for a reason. And I'd like every other driver to do the same not sit on my arse beeping only to try to overtake and see the moped in trouble around the bend or whatever.

Like your naturist story. I took my boy to the beach at Brighton thinking it would be too cold, but it wasn't! I was miles away and you could still see the willies hanging down - if I was au naturalle at that range you'd think I was a girl! At least in that weather you would.

But caravans are a real pain in the butt. Hmmm, I recall staying in a place called Elephant's Butte on my long trek from Brownsville, Tx to Las Vegas. Had to pull up for an overnighter cos a tanker had turned over across the entire road and there WAS only one road.
I put a message on my site to the gals to tell there where I was and pondered on why the place was called Elephant's bottom! Apparently it's all in the spelling.

Oh, on the cold and naturists. Once did a radio prog (with Robert Robinson? Busman's Holiday?) and it was in the thick of winter with snow on the ground. We, four of us + RR went out into the snow to have a piccie taken. I was wearing my little red wellies then, for which I was nick-named at the time, and after only a few mins feeling chilly I actually then felt quite warm. Maybe endorphins kicked in??

Hmmm, have to use a microwaved wheat bag for the same effect nowadays!

"Hey, it's not as hot down here as it used to be Satan."

"Nah! I couldn't afford the fuel bills anymore after Katrina, not only that but Penny Poyzer got sent down here 'cos God kicked her out for saying He washed His robes too often. She made me turn the thermostat right down. I have to use wheatbags heated in a microwave now. It just isn't the same as red hot burning coals...."

But a wheatbag is more malleable than red hot burning coals and will mould around anything so don't get too cocky!
