That was lucky....
in the Great Storm, I had just picked up a new to me car 3 days earlier, and it was parked out the front of the house, when the tree opposite came down. Lucky for me, the tree was forked, and the boughs came down in front and behind the car, with just a few light branches touching the car.... But I do have to say, that moment when I looked out of the window and saw it, my heart sank. |
