On Wednesday evening whilst cooking dinner I heard an almighty bang and having rushed to the porch window saw this green car had hit the lamp-post and almost ended up in the fields whilst trying to avoid another car coming up the road which had ended up on the same side of the road whilst they went around a couple of parked cars :-(
After presumably exchanging details the other car drove away and the owner of this green car put the hazard lights on and left...
Some time later the ladies who owned the cars parked outside rocked up and were on their phones for a while, some time after all this we had a low-loader and three police cars out front with six officers - no wonder there's never a policeman around when you need one. Not sure why it warranted so many - perhaps they were bored 🤣
Anyhoo, one police car stayed until quite late, parked up behind this green car with it's blue lights flashing, all very annoying as I was about to head off to bed. As I was getting ready for bed a large lorry arrived equipped with a crane type device and proceeded to lift the green car off the lamp-post and onto the back of the lorry. Amidst the car alarm sounding the lorry drove the car away followed promptly by the police.
So I thought, whilst the lamp-post is askew, at least it's still working and so I got in bed. Then the council rocked up and at quarter to midnight set about taking the lamp-post down with what sounded like an angle-grinder.
So much for getting some much needed sleep for work the next morning 😴
Talk about dinner and a show ;-)
