Lesson No. 1 - Never tempt fate...
You might remember my little scrape with White LC Man yesterday. I went on to say that I haven't had any scratches on my car.
Guess what.
Today I have more than a scratch. I have a pretty much destroyed rear end following a disgareement with a bus at the TV round-about this morning. I was on my way to work and making my way across the roundabout and the lights quickly changed...maybe too quick for someone who hasn't had their first coffeee...and I braked rather sharply to avoid going through the now red light. The guy driving the mini-bus behind me was too close and was caught out and slammed into me quite hard. It hurt quite a lot, I can tell you. I had to sit for a minute or so before I could even move out of my seat. My neck and back were very sore (still are).
The police were on the scene immediately and insisted on calling an ambulance for me. I did manage to move the car off the roundabout but the pains in my neck and back were pretty bad so I let them strap me onto the spinal board and take me to Hamad. A few hours later and after about a dozen x-rays I was discharged and am now at home feeling a bit, well, philosphical. I will think twice about tempting fate agai. I am having an interesting year, that's for sure.
I'm starting to wonder why Hamad didn't see fit to give me a neck brace. It's bloody hurting.
You can't teach experience...

Jimmy, screw the scratches on a car. Your well. That's whats important.
Scratches on a car are like "earning your stripes".
YOU HAVE LOST YOUR VIRGINITY YOU ARE A MAN NOW.

I forgot the best bit. Work sent a chap to pick me up from hospital. He was a Qatari chap in a WHITE LAND CRUISER. Top fella and a good driver to boot!
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA WOOP WOOP. WIBBLE WIBBLE. Time to take some pills, I think.
You do know there are no cameras on the round about right?
Good Fortune always comes knocking at your door...when you are sh*tting in the toilet!! :)

One's carefulness can only protect you so far, tess. The guy driving the bus that hit me should have been more careful too.
Glad to know that you are well..
The answer to your problem may be two fold:
1. Get a Driver
2. Get a LC

good thing you're doing fine, no matter how careful we are accidents do really come to ruin our day.
