Bit sore this morning

[Steve Bullman]

On the holiday from hell that just keeps on giving!

only came over here for a week for one of simonas best friends wedding. Tested positive for covid 2 nights before, then simona the day before…she was vomiting and sweating for hours(36 degrees with no air con didn’t help) and as a result ended up on an iv. Problem with that is she ended up in the system and couldn’t leave isolation without a negative test at a registered station. 

 

flights changed and car parking extended costing an extra £300. Then BA cancelled the flight shortly after, managed to get one the same day though.

 

finally simona tests negative so we have a nice day out at the beach with further plans to enjoy our last 3 days here. 
 

 

all going well and maddy was loving it, until a woman decided to pull out of a junction without looking. X marks the spot of the initial collision, she hit us more or less head on. Maddy escaped without a scratch on her miraculously…pretty sure it was the red bag beside her seat that saved her.

Simona has a few cuts and scrapes and a sore back but otherwise fine.

think I took the brunt of things with sink a possible landing on my rib cage(all a bit of a blur), but had x rays and no broken bones luckily. Hospital kindly relieved me of 700 euros though!

Jeesus- sounds awful Steve. Hope you heal quickly 👍

That’s a lot of bad luck, life is so unpredictable, you are all safe which is the main thing, could have been a lot worse …. hope the rest of your break goes smoothly without any misfortune.

For God's sake avoid ladders, mirrors and black cats.

 

What a nightmare; sorry to hear it.  But glad all are reasonably well

Our plane home is absolutely going to crash 😂

Ah well, things could be worse.

 

You'll be laughing about it by Christmas,

 

........................maybe!

 

Seriously though, y'all dodged a bullet in that collision, goodness knows how.

 

Unlucky in one respect, incredibly lucky in another, take your pick I suppose.

 

Safe home!

Glad you all came through relatively unscathed.

 

Which is giving you the most pain - ribs or wallet?

 

Safe journey home.

Haha ribs. Got insurance so should get the medical fees back minus £150 excess

Crikey - what a series of events.  Glad it wasn't worse.

 

Do Euromillions this weekend - your luck has to change.

It's a good job there's two kinds of luck or you wouldn't have any.

 

Evryone is ok, that's all that matters.
