Poor you, about the overtaking mercedes, though - had that happen, too, and once ended up on the verge to avoid being flattened. Nice cup of tea, though - especially one made on an Aga - is a cure for most things, I find.LittleBrownDoghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09752176955139690523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5257001575767428587.post-90338655998620150172008-05-19T19:53:00.000+02:002008-05-19T19:53:00.000+02:00How scary - glad you came to no harm.

A drive back from London was spoiled recently by some unnecessarily aggressive driving on the motorway. Made me glad to be back on our narrow winding lanes where anything faster than slow is unwise.mountainearhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15977393968796316843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5257001575767428587.post-26846888119137209662008-05-19T18:16:00.000+02:002008-05-19T18:16:00.000+02:00Are you sure it wasnt a British holiday maker??
