Bad week much?

This week has not been good. There is no reason to what has happened, but if I was even slightly inclined to believing in fate or gods then this would have had much more meaning…

Sunday – Roads are treacherous due to it pissing down with rain after a hot day.  I get all the way back from Lincoln to Radcliffe and then get arse ended at a roundabout due to some idiot bloke pulling up JUST BEFORE THE ROUNDABOUT.  We all scream to a halt, the car behind using me as extra brakes.  While we are out and assessing damage, the idiot that pulled up wanders over and asks how to get to Dorset.  My directions were “you are having a laugh mate, this is all your fault!”. Tool.

Tuesday – While I am off work with man flu, my house gets struck by lightning with me in it.  It was damn cool, but could have been a lot worse. It only knocked the power out.

Thursday 1 – At the (admittedly dodgy) gym at lunchtime straining away at some tricep pushdowns when three badboys in hoodies come in and start shouting at the (massive) owner of the gym. It gets a bit lairy, so we leave.  They clear off and I go back over, only to see that they have been throwing dumbells around and at the gym owner who has blood pouring down his face. I don’t even want to know what that was about.

Thursday 2 – Having had my car checked over to make sure it is safe to drive, I am going home with the crumpled exhaust banging away, then I hear a big clunk and the banging stops.  When I get home, the backbox is no longer attached to the car.  Left it in Nottingham SOMEWHERE.

So all in all, I have had enough of this week. I can’t remember breaking any mirrors or upsetting any gypsies.  I hope next week is better.
