Lucky Snapping quote

This week Lynne on Lucky Snapping has given us a quote from a film

This month my quote comes from a movie (might as well use the American word!) titled ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ made in 1986.
“ Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it”
 
and

This week I want to to use this quote.
1.Tell us how busy is your life this week? What are you up to?
2.Look around to see that you could have missed? Take some photos and show us
Well having looked at my diary for this week I didn't think I would get much if any blogging in as the plan was work Mon and Tues morning, coffee with Yvonne Monday afternoon, hairdressers Tues afternoon, Bristol Wed, home Thurs back to work Friday.  Well I should say that was my plan....................  silly me!!
 
All going well first thing, then at 8.05am whilst waiting to pull out onto the A390 that takes me into Truro and my first call the gentlemen behind me took such a fancy to my rear that he embedded his BMW in it!!!  I had seen him coming up behind me and thought he was going abit fast but didn't expect that.
 
 

Yes I know my car is filthy but if you saw the roads I have to travel down you would understand.
 

Now on the scale of car damage this really is nothing, even so it looks like the car will be written off as we are unable to open the boot!!  Thankfully the gentleman has accepted full responsibility  and his insurance company are supplying me with a car tomorrow and sending a photographer around on Wednesday to take photos so they can assess the damage and decide whether to write it off or repair it. As for me, I was shook up and cancelled my coffee with Yvonne, didn't feel up to it by the time I got home from work. The headache has just about gone so feeling normal again, think the headache was caused by the whole episode as appose to any injury.
 
 
I do hope the rest of the week goes to my plan and not someone else's as in today.
 
and some more daily photos before I drop behind again!!

  9. Oh no Karen, what a shock, no wonder you felt odd and a headache followed! I am so glad to hear the offender took responsibility for it, a friend of mine was hit by another driver and told him he would never prove it and left the scene, horrid.
    I hope your week does improve. xxx
