About 25 years ago I was riding a motorcycle along Blackburn Road towards Accy centre and I turned left down King Street, as I turned, a child ran out of Albion Street, I braked hard and threw myself over the handlebars and landed in a heap on the floor breaking my collar bone which I can still feel the break to this day. The child although was unhurt, she still suffered shock and was taken with me in the ambulance to Accy Victoria Hospital, we were both allowed home afterwards much to the wiser. A few days later I recieved a bill in the post for £7, for the Ambulance would you believe it?. A couple of years ago I broke my little toe on my left foot and had to wear a slipper all the time for a couple of weeks, on reflection the pain from the broken toe was ten times worse than the collar bone or maybe I'm getting soft in my "old" age.
