looking forward to look round the shops with my friend in oswestry because i knew i could hire a scooter was a day i and the people of oswestry wont forget in a while.
It all started, we were cruising at about 3 mile ph, with heather at my side, we came to a curb, i thought well its 4 wheel s on it i should be able to go down and back up the other side, so igo down with a scraping noise below me i built up speed to mount the curb at the other side of road, but...... i bounced the curb, it through me backwards, i ended up in the middle of the road spining round panicking as the lights had changed and there was 2 lots of on coming traffic heading my way, i drove up the road, and found a droped curb.
I joined my friend on the path and after wiping the tears of laughter away we cruised along the path, heather wanted to go in the o2 shop, so she said next right in a min, i veered right but instead of breaking i accelerated, and went crashing throgh double doors and spun round to a sudden halt, with the shop man saying becareful love mind the glass shelvs, heather is trying to top up her phone up but is bent over holding her stomache laughing, im just very emmbarresed and want to get ot.
We strolled out and i mounted the droped curb we are approaching the square where the pidgeons hang out, i took my hands of the accelerator but it drove into the pidgeons, and they just flew off every where, heather had to sit down for a bit and pull herself together.
We went into argos, alls well in there, coming out we crossed onto the opposite pavement and going along nicely when the scooter speeded up again, i turned the corner sharply to be met on head on with a puschair to avoid hurting the baby, i sped on to the road off on coming traffic my legs in the air and my bum off the seat being beeped at, we controlled our selvs again, and went along quietly but id noticed the scooter didnt like braking so i braked a bit earlier than needed , we did a right turn up a alley which i misjudged and ramed it into wall and it concked out on me, a load of school children were jeering and laughing saying reverse, i turned the key off and on again and it worked by now there is a bit of damaged paint work.
We went into a charity shop i saw a massive bunny 4ft one for 4.99 i bought it dont know who for yet lol, its new, so i said to heather watch this, i ncould see a gangway clear to the man at the till i sat bunny on my knee and put his hands on the handle bars, and down we went to the till, i misjudged the distance and banged into the till desk, the man jumped out the way shouting what the hell.... he laughed and said he thought someone had slipped something in his tea.
Last of all heather had a doctors appointment its a old building narrow doors but did have a ramp so up i went misjudged the door way trapped my leg and cracked the door way and scooter, the receptionist said "its just as well its not a new building", what a laugh we had, we were sat in pub, having a coke the barmaid came over and said your the lady that ran over my foot.
well we laughed that day till we cried and wt our selfs . xx
