Miss Daisy is Back!!!

Today, Miss Daisy was discharged from the workshop after having some surgery done to her front left fender region. This all started 2 and 1/2 weeks ago on 18 Dec when I got her into an accident with a lorry. It was pure carelessness on my part and I should have really been a bit more careful.

The damage was more serious than it should have been, considering the circumstances of the accident. I can only put it down to pure unluckiness that produced the severity of body damage. After an eternity of quotations from various workshops, negotiations and other administrative hold-ups, work finally started a week ago and completed today.

It was a trying time initially, getting to work and around without Miss Daisy. However, looking back at the past 2 weeks, life did slow down a little. I was more careful not to create too tight a schedule for myself so as to allow time for travelling. I resorted more to the old, reliable form of transportation by walking. It created a certain breathing space in an otherwise packed and crazy schedule in my life.

It was a with some trepidation that I went to collect her today. I was worried about the workmanship, the paintwork etc... however, after giving her a lookover, she looks none the worse.

So today is a good day.... if you see her back on the road, give a HONK!
