My tale of “Oh woe, woe and thrice woe”

This is not one of the pot-holes from Blackburn Lancashire made famous by the Beatles.

I was born in Blackburn, Lancashire.

M’reen’s tale of woe L

You will find a rather long article entitled:

Purpose is the sure route to (Turbo Charged Reading) success.

I wrote it. Maybe I should read it!!#!

I rarely drive at night.

On Wednesday my Sat Nav conspired to find four different routes to the wrong side of a closed road causing me to arrive back 1 hour and forty four minutes later than expected.

Two nights later after a series of manoeuvres that simply should not have happened I found myself on an unlit, single track road. I sent up a plea, ‘look after me’ and ‘don’t let me meet anyone.’

Remember that Midas knew what he meant and got what he asked for.

My wheel went down a 4 ¼, 11cm inch pothole and the car was not safe to drive further.

I was in a mobile black-spot and had no earthly idea where I was

as in this part of the world the roads follow the criss cross paths of the ancient past.

So much so that when I finally got home the breakdown people and police

couldn’t locate my car’s position on their internet maps.

Prior to this I had contemplated an uncomfortable night;

at least it was not raining or freezing and the bogies were outside.

I would be in a bright yellow car on a single track road with NO LIGHTS!

Now I really wanted someone to drive down that road that only had passing places

that had been carved out by the many cars that had needed them.

Now I sent up intentions that someone would drive along that lonely track.

Fortunately it was not a mad axe murderer that stopped but a lovely couple

who knew the area really well and they not only rescued me but also took me home.

Obviously I offered money recognising that no actual amount could cover their kindness

so I offered my skills as a hypnotherapist.

As it happened they had unfortunate needs for my skills.

But why???

I’ve ‘met’ numerous people who have been ‘sent’ to me and so I work fee free;

but in the past it has never cost me anything to work with them.

Was my purpose answered?

I asked to be looked after so I needed a situation whereby I needed looking after!

Thrice woe? The friends close by could not help me in the following few days.

When I finally received the help I needed I had to go back to the venue I attended

before re-tracing the road to find my car pulled into the side.

And thrice woe? I couldn’t claim compensation because my car was just outside of the MOT date

this was pot-hole Friday and my car was booked in for a test on the following Tuesday.

Nor was it financially viable to claim my breakdown excess.

So in the future I no longer politely drive slowly on the left but drive in the middle of the road.
