Dave and I had some car trouble. We were stopped in the lanes trying to let a garbage truck past, but I took us too far into the ditch and a small tree got under the bumper. Then the truck couldn't get through (didn't have what it took to make the tough decision) and when I backed up to get to a wider passing place, my bumper was ripped off by the tree. The tree had also damaged my front left wheel's fore mud flap (or whatever that is) so it was touching the tire. We had to tae the car into the shop. Fortunately, we were near home (and the shop), when it happened. The shop I go to is awesome and for 20 pounds they fixed the wheel's mud flap, reattached and reinforced the bumper, and finished the work within one hour, leaving us time to visit both the Eden Project and Tintagel on that day, as we had planned.

You car was defeated by a tree stump that had been left for dead. There is something oddly cute about that.
