Smash

As the Regulars wended their way homeward bound at the end of the working day along the potato highways Gobby was alarmed to hear on national radio that their main arterial route had been untimely closed due to an incident.

Setting to to inform the other Regulars who have to bite the bullet and leave the Shire in the pursuit of gainful employment Gobby was beaten to it by a SPUDFLASH!

It would seem Spudgirl and her colleagues were wholly to blame for the delay:






















On hearing this Gobby, already snarled up on a previous 5 mile tailback on the M1, could not hold back in informing Spudgirl that,

'If I reach the front if this queue and find it is also potato-related you will be for the chop!' (or chip, roast or dauphinoise.)

In mitigation Spudgirl pointed out,

'All ours should be coming up the A1.'

But Gobby in her frustration felt it could be down to,

'The spud that got away!'
















As she covered the final stretches Gobby spotted another of the offending vehicles and (obviously whilst pulling over to where it was safe to do so) texted Spudgirl informing her,


"Just overtook one of your lorries. Gave it a WIDE berth."

But it was Hellrunner that summed up the incident declaring,

"It's a long time since I saw a smash like that!"
