Quite the peculiar day!?!

OK, I just have to let this out of my system!

This morning before I left I said today was peculiar -  indeed, it
turned out to be peculiar..
Coming down Julius Jeppe Street I put my indicator on to turn left.
The car on the other side looked like she was going straight - no
indicators either way. I saw I could go, but as I left the stop
street, that lady turned at the same time. I stopped and she stopped
next to me and had a mouthful of silent words to give me.. It was her
fault for not indicating and I guess she forgot that shouting through
glass, the atmosphere and another pane of glass is utterly useless!?!

The speed limit is between 70km/h and 80km/h along Gen. Louis Botha,
but I got to drive at 40km/h because of some slow-coach driving a new
beamer two cars in front of me, and then also turned into Glenwood
Road! Great thing was that the BM made for the Menlyn area.

After the traffic light and the first circle in Glenwood Road, I came
centimetres from a bumper bashing experience. At the circle near the
top of the highest rise and the first speed bump, the person in front
of me stopped suddenly - it was very wet and I managed to stop only
centimetres away...I laughed it away and kept my distance doubled!

Fifty metres later, at the traffic light, the car in front of me made
movements as though it were to go through the orange light - it
decided to stop quite suddenly for no reason. Again the wet road did
not come to my rescue, but the brakes did and my fateful experience of
aqua-planing [sp?] some years back across from my old church!

A sighted, not blind, pedestrian decided to cross the road without
looking and walk as if the world stood still, for thirty seconds,
while he got to the other side - I wanted to turn right, the car
opposite mine wanted to turn left and the driver on my left needed to
go straight...

Finally, Darren got me to leave the office today by turning off the
lights as he and Johnathan were leaving - Darren called it a great
incentive to get me to leave the office on time!!

The enD!!
