Not Such a Merry Christmas

I've probably written off my car on the way back from the airport on Sunday. Hit a bad patch of black ice on the Clydebank off-ramp of the Clyde Tunnel and slammed into the crash barrier. No injuries -- Anne suffered a little seatbelt bruising and I bruised and skinned my shin on the accelerator pedal -- could have been a lot worse and the wee car is a mess. Full marks to the traffic police they were first class, moved the car and stayed with us until 911 came and took it away -- well done Scott and his mate !!! Still had a lovely Xmas break with the family down south -- that's what's important.

Very relieved to see you escaped unhurt.

Two feet are better than four wheels in this weather :-)

Too true Mark -- funnily enough one of the traffic cops who attended was a neighbour of yours -- Scott ?? Didn't catch his second name. Him and his mate were really great.
