For those without tinkerfish on their friends page:

"nattydreadi had a car crash last night and wound up upside down in a ditch.  Thankfully and miraculously he's ok, unlike the car which sounds totalled."

Big hugs to the stupid mick, I'm thinking of you unlike normal when you rarely cross my mind not hardly at all no-sir-ee.

Eeeep! :(

Could you say "hi" from me and Nick and say that we're thinking of him and are glad he's okay? :)

[tallulahs.livejournal.com]

I'm seeing him at the weekend so will pass on your message. :)

[kingandy]

Give him one from me.

I mean, a hug or something.

[anne-l-davies.livejournal.com]

Mare. Hope he gets well soon.

[mirabehn.livejournal.com]

Thanks. :)

[tallulahs.livejournal.com]

Will do! Not sure where though now that his car bonnet has been totalled...

;-)

[ed-fortune.livejournal.com]

Send fat sandancer hugs in his direction

[blue-room.livejournal.com]

Mark W: You know I'm glad he's alive, so I can say 'I'm really glad you're not dead, you stupid wanker' before punching him.

I hope someone took pictures of his totaled car so we can show him them when he mentions fast cars again.

Once again with the 'very glad the stupid mick isn't smeered all over the road in a thin red paste'... I'll stop now.

MGF's do not like somersaults

Driving at speed limit, aquaplaned, spun, rolled into ditch, car toppled rather than 'flipping'

Waiting to see if it's a write off so I can buy a corsa

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[kingandy]

I do not know what aquaplaning is. It sounds like fun! Or, you know, that other thing.

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[nattydreadi.livejournal.com]

When you hit a waterpatch and lose all traction.

Fun on big open stretches of track, less fun on narrow country roads.

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[kingandy]

Were you driving at the national speed limit on a windy country road in the rain at night? If so, I shall continue to call you stupid.

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[samharber.livejournal.com]

Aquaplaning is when you hit a thin sheet of water that removes any semblance of traction between the tyres and the road. Slightly scary if you're going in a straight line, terrifying if you're going around a bend.

FUCKING HELLL.

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[wulfboy.livejournal.com]

For fucks sake, get a proper car or learn to drive the one you've got. Attempting to commit suicide in a moving vehicle is neither big nor clever.
You fucking wanker.

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[nattydreadi.livejournal.com]

No, I was doing about 50 on a straight bit of road coming out of a shallow corner for which I had slowed to about 40

I take that corner without breaking twice a day in the dry at about 60.

I should drive like a maniac more I always have accidents when I'm being good

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[kingandy]

Fair enough then, I shall call you misfortunate.

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[kingandy]

Calm down! It's only a commerciHe's fine, everything's fine.

only a commercial...

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[wulfboy.livejournal.com]

Yes, but he could have died and taken out a serious chunk of the people in the oncoming traffic lane as well. Anyway, there's plenty of people to be calm and offer cups of tea, someone has to shout "You stupid fucking twat" at him.

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[kingandy]

I suppose that is more or less your calling in life.

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[wulfboy.livejournal.com]

Aye, true enough. Sometimes it's a pleasure, other times (like this time) I just want to grab someone by the necktie and smack their face against a hard surface while screaming it in their ears. It's one of those things, like being an arsehole from time to time, that I have to do. It's my religion.

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[kingandy]

And this doesn't appear at all counterproductive to you? I mean, beating somebody up as punishment for putting themselves in physical jeopardy...

Re: MGF's do not like somersaults

[wulfboy.livejournal.com]

(Puzzled expression) No. I think the more stupid someone feels for putting themselves in physical jeapordy, the better. It's the same principle as being smacked for sticking your tongue in an electric socket.
