The day I nearly died...

Wow, well today there were fantasastic storms that were hitting the UK. Aparently parts of south England and Wales were subject to flooding. Well when these hit London it mostly was driving rain and fierce winds, which actually made it a bit interesting up until I left for work in the evening. But that wasn't the exciting part.

After I got off the bus at Angel I proceded ot walk down the road to the school. As I was heading downt the road there was a sudden large gust of wind which caught my attention. This was because it had chosen to play with a recycling bin and boy did it play. It dragged it across the road and then back before picking it up and throwing it against the gutter. It thoguht this was pretty coool until I caught movement in the top of my vision.

Well suddenly the small recycling bid was a bit boring as a huge bit of, what I guess was a piece of temporary roofing, came crashing down onto the back of a car. Man was it cool. It hit the car and the entire back window shattered and exploded out into the street showereing me in glass. I thoght that it was pretty fantastic. This piiece of plywood completely obliderated this small VW and smashed it good. Wow it was great!

After thought I realised that if I had got off the bus a bit earlier then I woud have been right under the piece of roofing. But not so I was just left to look on amazed at this cool thing that had just happened.

Ah man I thought my weekend was exciting. I guess another one of those moments you wish you were filming so you can re watch it in slow motion. Cool.
