I say narrowly missed, by around 30 meters actually!

I had just been over taken buy a 4x4 with lengths of coving hanging out of the passenger window when one broke in 2 and bounced down the road in front of me.

I know I should have take the whole thing more seriously but I just kept laughing at the thought of the vicar saying " ...alas, hand it not been for a 3 foot length of gypsum coving he would be here to day!"

I think you have a misconception of this area;):wacko:
Punch bowl(pub near me, dont know if you know it) has been burgled for the second time in 2 months, was done early Weds Morn.
So post office armed people go in, punch bowl keeps being broken into:wacko:

Not had anything fly off and get me yet, or even had anything fly off a vehicle. I am careful of some of the lorries that are going from the direction of the crap/maggot place. Often liquids drippingxx(xx(:biggrin:

I've had wood, earth, gravel, an estate agent sign and a ladder nearly hit me in the past due to the load not being properly secured/covered.

Usually just the fag-ends thrown out of the window that I have near-misses with (or the odd rabbit at this time of year too).

Ive never had anyone throw rabbits out of car windows at me.:eek:
 
I was following a timber lorry once and I could see the load shifting so hung back a bit then a log around about the 2 ton mark rolled off now that would have been interesting
