Glad you have a more humane way of dismantling your vaping gear Jez

Will do Del, and thank you!

Thanks Clutter,
you are right, and I thank goodness that it WAS G. there and not anyone else!

Thanks Chrissie , I am going to rename Ian The Kharzy Chief!

Hope he doesn't pooh pooh me

Thank you Jerry,
you have said exactly the same as me, but my poor man is still re-living that moment and will for some time to come.
Sometimes the what if's torture you, when the actual event is put aside.

Please don't read this if your are squeamish.

My OH was at work yesterday morning, driving his 44 tonne lorry towards Felixstowe on the A14.

At 04.25 a car overtook him doing around 75 miles per hour.
It kicked up dust on the central reservation and then veered violently left and barrel rolled.
All sorts of debris came out of the car and littered the road.

G. decided to drive over a bag of rubbish to get nearer to the car to help the occupants.
He realised at the last second that the bag of rubbish was a small child sitting upright in the road.

He slammed the brakes and managed to stop his lorry about 7 feet from the child.

He picked up the 18 month old girl and held her as she was crying, and all she had was blood coming from her nose. He feared the worst (head injury.)

He started to walk towards the car to check it out, when something caught his eye on the verge.

The was a man there and G. checked for a pulse, but there was none.
G said he looked really peaceful, like he was asleep, and there wasn't a mark on him.

There was no-one else in the car, thankfully.

G. held and comforted the little girl until the emergency services got there and they took her away.

G. carried on working, but all he could think about was what would of happened if he hadn't stopped in time. He got home around 2pm visably shaken and IMO suffering with shock.

G. received a call from a traffic bobby this morning saying the little girl was stable in hospital, with pulminary oedema, but doctors are hopeful for a full recovery.

An 18 month old child being thrown out of a rolling car, is a sickening thought, the fact that she is still alive is a miracle!

So... what happened? G. said there were no brake lights on.
Did the poor man fall asleep, was he distacted by the babe?
That is something we will never know,
BUT it brings it all home, when you see morons reading maps, putting on make-up, or other such idiotic pursuits, whilst they are driving, how lucky they are not to be dead.

No Jerry, allthough I have found the remnants of (Chucky) to be very interesting, especially the very short and MEAN wick, I will be using entirely new bits for my modding exploits.
I have decided to call it mooding, because it all depends.........

I was going to start on a box mood, but the thought of vaping on a Kat box made me feel a bit sick
I think my first outing in the Mooding department will be quite interesting as I have bought a large roll of duct tape, just in case
