Boy had it rained! The drains in the village high street could barely cope. Puddles of dark brown water filled the kerbside.

Walking along the pavement towards the shop, I figured it was just a matter of time. And just on time, a village troublemaker in his immaculate boyracermobile was heading towards me. I could see his intent; it was fun after all. I was about to get a dirty dousing as he aimed for the kerbside.

Counterintuitively you might think, I stepped towards the puddle. Instinctively, he swerved right... right into a car conveniently parked opposite.

Crash not splash.

    To be honest Jamie, I told a porky about the crash, but I made my point, he missed the puddle and so I avoided a soaking!

    Just sometimes wish the Karma on people like that!
