Lizzie Whizz May 2022 4:42pm, 14 May 2022 26,691 posts	0 Lizzie Whizz Oh. Mr W is back from far away bike park adventure via a car incident (hit crash barrier while trying to avoid rear-ending someone who had stopped behind a shunt on a bend, then next person went into him): I fear the relatively minor damage maybe widespread enough to have an impact on her life expectancy. Particularly galling after spending quite a bit getting her bits welded and exhaust fixed properly, her tailpipe is now squint. [She is an F reg Volvo tank, the Micra behind crumpled on impact]

A load of minor disasters yesterday: Slept through alarm so late setting off Shoe came off in a bog, got it but that led to cramp So many sponsored walkers going the other way on single track Didn’t realise road at back of Thirlmere is totally blocked Shredded legs and ripped shoe trying to get round the block which didn’t work Bit of an adventure 🙄
