Guest guest Posted September 4, 2001 Report Share Posted September 4, 2001 DH, you may recall, works away from home in the week. He stays in a B & B somewhere down by Hannah H midweek. Tonight he went swimming and on the way home, doing about 70mph in the inside lane of a dual carriageway, some twit in the outside lane drifted in and drove along the side of him scraping his driver's door. The other bloke wasn't going to stop until DH kept flashing his lights (lucky the main beams worked because the dipped headlights went out in the collision). The other driver didn't even know he had hit DH - just kept saying what a bad day it had been. DH is a bit shaken up, but thankfully not hurt and at least the car is driveable, as the lights did come back on OK. Poor thing just feels a bit lonely away from home and miserable He was planning to get home around 3pm on Friday (rather than 8pm) as we go on holiday Saturday morning. Now looks like he'll be taking the car to the garage rather than packing. Thankfully I drive our family estate car and DH a Micra, so at least we haven't got to sort out alternative transport for the holiday (wouldn't cherish the thought of getting holiday packing into the boot of a small courtesy car).
