#1 Bedtime story

Post by Tony » Sun Nov 30, 2014 1:15 am

While driving home tonight I was hit by of all things, a flying bed Mattress.
A car coming the other way with an old mattress on the roof lost it load, only for it to hit my car, taking off the drivers door mirror and the car aerial.
I have only had the car 3 weeks so was not best pleased.

Looking on the bright side, if you are going to be hit by anything, a nice soft bed mattress is as good as it gets. I kept my cool and decided to sleep on it.

Mirrors and bed mattresses - not a good combo.
