Who says nothing happens here?

Last Sunday while minding my own business and listening to Snow Patrol's new "Up to Now" album - which I recommend you buy something very unusual happened.


Neither me or my neighbour heard this but we were informed by a guy and gal later that a take-out food delivery employee had not put the handbrake on the car enough and it had rolled down the hill and smashed into the fencing near my house.



Funniest thing is I was in at the time but my parents were not. So I was enjoying a cool glass of Hoegaarden (again - I recommend this), just casually looked out of the window and saw the fencing in bits and concrete plinths knocked over.

I couldn't believe I hadn't heard anything so went outside took some photos then rang my parents and told them the news.


It really is lucky that a police officer happened to be passing by at the time and that no-one was hurt with the car rolling at some speed, uncontrollably, now a hill in the dark narrowly missing a lamppost.
