Hiya,
A little incident when travelling home from Washington (Tyne and Wear) not DC,
I pulled up at a set of traffic lights and bang a car went up my back end, quite a
jolt but the only damage was her busted number plate which had contacted my
towing equipment nothing wrong with my motor, but the outburst from the quite
elderly lady (and I say that very loosely) it went something like this, why did you
have to stop there she ranted, well because the traffic signals were showing red
I says by which time they had gone from red to green and back to red, Oh’ she
like all women got the last word when she asked me who would be paying for her
number plate, I just shook my head “waited for the green” and drove off.
thanks harry, long retired.
