Reminds me of 2 incidents over the weekend I am still chuckling about.
Incident 1
2 cars in front of me exiting the petrol station. Car 2 thinks car 1 is pulling into traffic but in reality doesn't go anywhere so receives a gentle nudge to the bumper. Driver gets out, waves hands a bit and they both agree to reverse a bit and get out of everyones way to exchange details. Driver 1 - still steaming from being gently nudged from behind reverses at speed straight into a pole - doing far more damage than original incident.
Incident 2
Was in Kew Gardens on Sunday for the Christmas set-up. Saw a granny coming down the helter skelter ride with excited family waiting at the bottom to take a photo. Somehow as she got to the bottom and just as she lifted her hands to wave to everyone - the carpet she was on got stuck so she pitched forwards and slightly sideways straight into the crowd at the bottom.She lay motionless for a little while but seemed ok after 10 seconds or so. I guffawed loudly enough for her family to shoot me some dirty looks. Still smirking just thinking about it.
