Bump!

I dropped my son off at his friend’s house higher up the mountain, and decided to pop in and see a friend on the way home. As I braked and turned into my friend’s driveway, the lady driving behind me failed to see my indicator (I’m sure I was indicating – I could hear it ticking) so she moved to overtake.

CRUNCH!

I’m sorry to say that we had a brief yell at each other, being human and upset.  And then we calmed down and went into my friends house and had a camomile tea to calm down some more and we filled in the paperwork.

It could all have been so much worse.
