You know how things come in three's? Well it started last week. A friend of mine was coming in to work for a visit and to give me a hand. As I had to quickly duck home with Dave and his mate (they were doing some odd jobs at the day care) I was coming back and saw her going the wrong way. So I told Dave to grab my phone and ring her. Well, I looked down as he was ferretting around in my bag looking for my phone (which wasn't there), I had slowed down a little. Looked back up to see a ute right in front of me. Of course the obvious happened, bang! Only just got him, but his rear tail light did a big scrape up my bonnet and a little dent. No damage to his thank goodness!
Then Monday morning, as it was raining, Dave pulled my car out and decided to leave it near the back door. He pulled up next to the washing line, and I heard a scrape and crunch, looked out and he had got the pole. So he put it into reverse, and all I saw was my head light sitting out where it should not be!! And the crunching noise of it all sticking. Luckily hubby is off this week, so I went and woke him up and he came down and taped it all back into place for me. He will look at it this weekend to see what sort of damage there is. Hopefully only the headlight mount will need to be replaced.
So now I am waiting for #3. And driving VERY carefully. |
