Naughty, naughty girl!  I have to say that when it got to you making an escape, I began to think 'this is a good story' lol!

Jan, I have a story to tell - and it is VERY true!  My bladder woke me up around 1.0am this morning, and as I was struggling out of bed I heard THE MOST horrendous noise - sounded like the scream of a jet engine, but I knew it was the sound of a car going EXTREMELY FAST! Then came the BANG!  I staggered to the window and saw a car upside down in the field opposite.  I struggled downstairs trying not to trip over my three wild-eyed cats to get to my land line (luckily big numbered touch-tone!) so could just about manage to hit 999 in the darkness (no time to put the light on!) I was asked in a very stern voice "Police, Fire, Ambulance'?  I said 'all three, I think'  and within five minutes an ambulance arrived followed by 2 police cars, two Fire Engines and a helicoptor!  (Jeez - the Resources!)  To my amazement I saw a young man in his 20's walk from this wreck apparently unharmed and unperturbed and he just walked off!  There were still folks up and about at that time and they went over to inspect the wreckage and I heard one of them say 'he's just legged it'!  Well for the next 4 hours it was lights, banging car doors, loud voices and NO chance of any sleep, so I just watched everything from my bedroom window.  It was mosting interesting watching the crane haul the wreckage onto the back of a low-loader - all done in about 15-20mins! I finally tried for a few hours kip but that darned helicopter hung around for ages!  I looked out of the window this morning and there was no sign that anything had happened, no skid marks and not so much as flattened grass on the field.  A dream? NO I had the presence of mind to take photos of the wreck being loaded - unfortunately, the camera clearly showed that my windows need cleaning! :-(
