Almost a Nasty Accident. by ladymagpie

Almost a Nasty Accident.

During the night, at around 5.30am, I heard a tremendous noise and a loud bang, my bed shook a little. I quickly put the light on and started a search around my bungalow for what had caused this frightening noise.

I had searched each room and found nothing, so returned to my bedroom. As I climbed into bed I noticed a screw in the wall above my headboard, that's funny I thought, there was a picture there, quite large with a glass front.

It was at this point I realised that it had fallen off the wall, hit the headboard and dropped down the back of the bed. Later I began to think how nasty that could have been, if it had fallen slightly forward and the glass front hitting my face. It had been up there for 30+ years and the string deteriorated and snapped.

I might have had to go to the police and complained that I had been framed. Just dropped in again to my 365project to let you all know I'm still alive.
---And what a lovely framed picture! That could have been very nasty , but glad you are alive and well and able to tell the tale!

Return that twine to the shop and demand a refund, they've strung you along with its reliability
