Taxi Service...in the living room?!
Last night, about half past two, there was a crash, which sounded like a trash can being knocked over by the wind. Then there was the sound of a car alarm. After rushing to the window and then rushing downstairs I realised it was not a trash can. Across the way from our house, on the main road, number 71 had a taxi sticking out of it's living room wall. The house next to it, was lucky in the fact that the Ford belonging to number 71, missed hitting it.
It as snowy last night and the street was covered in it, about 2 inches, I'd say. The taxi must have skitted, hit the Ford that was parked on the street in front of number 71, spun around and then went straight for the living room. Their door was totally 'wrecked' and part of the wall underneath the front window was gone. When we were curtain twitching and door peeking, we noticed that a structual engineer had been called out. It was quite cold and they didn't board up the front window till later on in the morning, when it was light, which was when the cars were removed.
I was very thankful that our house is not on the main road. And no, no pictures were taken, because I don't want to 'gain' anything off of someone else's misery.
...seeing as it is after the fact, then I'll get some pictures and post them.
