Travelling with Hugh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 (N/A)

As you know myself and Hugh share our travelling to Dundry for club nights as we both live close to each other and its good for our carbon footprints.

Back in the snow we had a couple of eventful journeys.

This week topped it all as this time at approx 11.30 pm going past the airport before dropping into the Combe we meet a Polish chap head on at 40 mph on our side of the road.

Big Bang but we all get out ok.

He claims he was trying to do a U turn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My poor old Monterey which is part of the family and has been a faithful friend is know probably game over although we got it down to Rons under its own steam.

I was wandering if anyone else has had these kind of adventures with Hugh?

Denise told me about the accident.  Hope you are both OK.  Did you go to A&E on Tuesday?

Exactly what i was thinking.

They also tend to have a totally independant witness(usually their brother/sister/cousin/uncle/aunt)who wasn't even there suddenly claim they saw the accident and it was all your fault!!!

This happened to a mate who was knocked off his motorbike by a asian taxi driver.
