dont drink and drive

Last night I was sitting here at my computer when I heard a massive BANG! from outside. When I went out the front I saw across the road a car had gone straight through a brick wall! The car had gone up the grass verge, across the pavement, smashed through the wall and hit the house, throwing bricks through the downstairs windows with it. Many people rushed over to help the one lucky lady who managed to walk from her car . . . but not quite walk in a straight line because she was drunk.
Apparently she had been at a friends dinner party and had been drinking, then went home and drank some more, finished off that and then decided to go to Tesco's in her car to get some more! Then of course she found out that was a shit idea as she lost control of her car and tried to do an 'A-Team' though my opposite neighbours wall.




I wanted to take photos that night of the car in situ, but it was dark and I felt very self-conscious with my camera flash as well as insensitive as the lady was there with the ambulance. Consider the broken wall as an index of the car's impact upon it... or something like that.
