truck load lost - 11:59 AM
(filed under 'general')
there was big news in our little town yesterday. a load came off the back of a truck. i have no idea what it was, but i saw it lying at the side of the road just coming out of town. the truck, sans big heavy thing, was parked a few hundred metres further up the road. what had come off looked like a huge metal monstrosity. a solid, mostly rectangular piece of metal about as big as some people's lounge rooms with bits sticking out of it.
i guess the driver took the corner too fast & off went the big scary thing onto the side of the road. by the time i went past it, the traffic was diverted around it & there were official looking people standing around it looking as though they were wondering how on earth they were going to get it out of the road & back on the truck.
there was even a tv camera there taking images. big news. heh.
