Lifes' supreme Ironies

[Barney]

Here is the first one, Sometimes you have to laugh through the abject anger.

I spent a good half an hour sat by a puddle at the side of the road waiting for a bus or lorry to go through and make one of those huge tidal waves, no lorries and no buses and every car dodged the puddle.

I got fed up and decided to got to Screwfix for some bolts, while driving through the heavily potholed industrial estate a lorry went past on the other side of the road, I watched aghast as the huge wave I had been looking for came straight at me and through the open window of my vehicle....

I nearly crashed laughing at the supreme irony of it, I was soaked and had to pull over to clean my sodden glasses.

I went back to my original puddle and got a shot of sorts,

Reminds me a little of this section of road in Glasgow. After it's been raining hard and then the sun comes out, it can often be temping to open your window for some fresh air whilst sitting at the lights here.

I'm sure you can guess what happens.... lol

I once spent half an hour standing by the ford at Sidmouth, waiting for a car to raise a good splash.

Would you believe it? Everyone was on their best behaviour that day! I can only think that I wasn't as well hidden as I thought....
