Good morning CDR.
I've just dropped my little Fiesta off at a local garage to get the door mirror fixed.
Joe's sister encountered a tractor in a narrow lane in the week and, correctly, pulled right against a hedge to let it pass. Unfortunately, there was a telegraph pole in the hedge that she couldn't see and it broke the mirror.
She was very upset, but a bit of broken plastic and glass isn't the end of the world, or that expensive to fix fortunately, and she and the rest of the car are fine. Better the mirror hit a pole than a tractor took the other side of the car off.
From what she said about her friends reaction - our friends in North America may not be able to picture the common or garden narrow UK country lane with lots of bends and high hedges or dry stone walls both sides and few passing places. We have a lot!

Pip got out of the cage when I had the top off and had the time of her life running in and out of my school folders... 
What a little cutie!!!
I can just see the disbelief on the face of your teacher when you come out with the excuse.......
'Sorry sir but my gerbil ate my homework...!'
Lovely pic though.
That's the trouble with that sort of corruption - and it puts people off making donations.
I think you're right Ed - money via Red Cross or other organised charities is the way.
Go steady, we don't want you ill again!i have to do a beer run for tonight
Good luck (but hope I have more of it!
)
Glad JoesSis is Ok. As you say - much better to take on a post than a tractor!
Definitely the lesser of two evils!
A late hello to everyone from me - hope you've all had a good Saturday.
Mines been pretty uneventful - just busy catching up with my chores and shopping.
hopefully catch up with you all tomorrow.

Congratulations.
I can't imagine life without a dog.
Good morning all! It's looking like it'll shape up into a nice day today. The sun is out and the clouds don't look threatening
Might go out for a walk later.
