:: ark!

Look what happened yesterday in my street! Terror as lorry crashes into a cottage.

Yikes. It happened at about 3pm, and normally at that time I would have been walking the dog. But yesterday I left home just before then, on foot, because my car was in the garage having its water leak dealt with. Again. So I missed all the excitement.

The poor cottage looks very forlorn -- it's a lovely little stone house, and now has a huge crack down the wall where the lorry hit. The window is boarded up, some of the roof tiles have been broken, and the guttering's been torn off. The solid stone wall at the front was punched right over, down into the garden (the cottage is below the level of the road). I don't know the lady who lives there.

No time to write more, I'm too busy. Tomorrow will be even worse -- I'm tired just thinking about it.
