Ball of Confusion

We were waking along the street today when we heard the sound of tyres screeching - screeching just a little too long...

We all turned to look and saw two transit vans plough head-on into each other.

The sound of a real crash is less in comparison to what you hear in the movies but has a sickening finality that leaves you in little doubt that something bad has just happened.

Liquid gushed onto the street from underneath the vans - I thought it was petrol for a moment but mercifully it was the water from the smashed radiators.

One of three close calls I saw on the streets of Edinburgh today - be careful out there people
