Dear old sole today invited me in for bacon butties & a brew to warm me up that I was most grateful for.
Anyway as we got chatting she mentioned her walker brakes were not working very well and has taken recently a couple of nasty falls. So after hearing that got my tool box out of the van and adjusted the breaks so were working again as they should within a couple of mins of my time.
On the way home at a tee junction I came across a lady in the middle of the road outside of her car with a child in the back so stopped the van to block the traffic behind me that were overtaking parked cars. My immediate thoughts were she had just broken down so got out to help push it to the side of the road as you do. Whilst walking over I notice another car had stopped into the turning and a chap was walking also back to her car thinking great another helper.
Anyway turns out an rtc so her front o/s including the wheel was damaged including the drive shaft so was a bugger to get it to the side of the road but we managed it in the end. Then it turn out the other car (nice new bmw) that had stopped had its o/s front wheel hanging off blocking the turning so was not going anywhere. Anyway everyone was ok including the child and as I did not see it happen so left them to it for police and recovery vehicles to turn up.
On driving back home I was thinking how the hell did that happen. Was not until I got through the door at home it dawned on me I had only gone and left my tool box at the old dear house… Oh! FFS
