Just dropping by to record my morning drama. I went to the bathroom showroom to collect a tile sample and had a brief chat with the saleswoman about another (you have to make appointments all the time but the chap in the warehouse sent me into find a missing piece). Luckily, as I hadn’t booked a slot I didn’t feel I could loiter, because within 30 seconds of getting back in the car there was a bang and I looked up to see a car disappearing at speed into the showroom. There was a free-standing bath where the car is located in this photo which stopped its progress and fortunately a member of staff was away from his desk. The driver and his passenger were very shocked but unscathed. It turns out that if you hit the accelerator of a Porsche rather than the brake it moves very fast. I can’t help but think about the timing of the events just before - waiting for the dustbin collection, the warehouse man realising he’d given me the wrong thing etc etc…
Good thing: material damage can be repaired
Weather: improving
Covid: on a knife edge….
Wow Judith you do live a dangerous life! If only will be going through your head…..
What a shock for all concerned! Could have got yourself squashed good & proper!
@happypat terminally squashed Pat! A miracle there didn’t seem to be a scratch on anybody. I imagine the fire brigade may have been needed to get the car out safely.
Wow, I just popped over to see how you were doing as I'd not seen a post for a wee while. Seems like you've been living life on the edge! Glad you were ok, and that the Porsche couple were ok too. What an incident to happen!!!
