Favour for a friend!

I offered to transport a wardrobe for my friend Pia. From an ebay seller in Reading to her new flat in Kingston. Not really to far of a drive.

I drive a Citroen Saxo.. Not really a great car for transporting large items but I got a roof rack on it and though.. Yeah... It a be fine.. But we didn't have any rope or anything so we borrowed some ties form next door and made our way to reading..

Upon arrival the ebay sellers were giving us the funneyest looks like.. "So wheres this big van of yours?". I took a look at the Wardrobe then another look at my car... Emmmm.. Yeah were gona be able to get it on there! No problems... Sort of.

Him - "You havent really thought this through have you"
Me - "To be honest with you.. Im kinda still not even thinking about it"

With the wardrobe on the roof and the draws In the boot (well.. and back seats.. I never even relised they could be put down.) we set of to Kingston folowing the sat navs directions.. Witch even though we told to avoid main roads still had us on moterways the whole way there!

Every thing was running smothley. Had hazard light on the whole way, slowly creeping up to 50 down the moterway. But it was fine, nothing to strenuious... Then we came to some start stop traffic.. Kepped picking up speed then stopping, picking up speed stopping, picking up speed then CRASH! A dude stopped suddenly in front of me. With all the extra weight I couldn't stop in time and went strait in the back of him.

The guys car wasn't damaged at all, just a lil bump maybe. But my car was 2 inches shorter! I checked every thing over, car was running fine, no major damage so we continue with the jorney.
For the rest of the day the car was fine, nothing out of the ordinary..

We get the wardrobe to her new flat and get it in just fine. Were hanging out for a wile meeting her new flat mates and telling the story of the journey there.. And it was all good. Like the day was finaly over we can just go home and chill out till tomorow.. So we do..

I drop Pia off and then start making my way home. Now going 70 down the motorway middle lane.. Not got the wardrobe on any more and it feels good to be back up to speed.. then smack!! Like a snap the bonnet flew up and hit my windscreen... From the previous crash it wasn't fastened down properly.. So im now driving blind.. Cant see any thing but behind me and theres cars every where!...

Now I have absolutely no idea how I made it to the side of the road with out getting hit or hitting some one!... Last thing Remembre after the bonit hit the windscreen was sitting heart pounding at the side of the road while car honk their horns as the go speeding past...

Some times i think i just shouldnt drive...
