Spent the afternnon and evening in A & E. Note to BB: please remember when giving the car a push for the garage man, to remove your hand from the doorframe BEFORE he slams the door on it. Result: big bandage on broken and split little finger, left hand. He may never play the violin again*.
The car isn't in good shape either. I drove home last night from a meeting and as I pulled up and tried to put it into reverse to turn it round I couldn't get the gear. Thought it was just me because I'm a mechanical dunce. But it wasn't. This is entirely why the garage man was at our house this lunchtime.
I'm not sure which will be most painful. BB's squashed finger or the estimate for trepairs when it arrives.
* BB doesn't actually play the violin... but he does play 'cello. Thankfully not for a living.
