    Oh no, did you really get hit by a car :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

    Was the cider worth it :rolleyes:

    Yes kind of, and yes. :D

    I was in Tesco car park and it was rammo to get in and out. Except there were loads of spaces but the queues were making them blocked. So anyway, I'm walking across some empty parking bays (the ones where you park bumper to bumper with someone on the other side) and this car decideds he is gonna take a shortcut through them to get to the other lane sort of thing.

    I wasn't expecting anyone to come through so wasn't really paying attention and he clipped my leg with the front wing. So naturally I demonstrated my vast vocabularly of swear words and hopped round to the drivers side slightly annoyed. I saw the kids in the back so just waved my finger at him and wished him a Merry Christmas. He didn't even look at me let alone apologise. Bloody coward. Was so tempted to kick his headlights in though. :)

    Yes, but he COULD have hurt someone. I think your use of the Queens English was well justified.
