Now, i'm not sure if this is in the right place as it covers a few different things, may even involve NDE's depending....

Read the following like you are a 1940's pathe news reader Smile

On friday late afternoon/early evening on the way home from work i stopped at my local beverage dispensery for my evenings happyness tonic, I purchased aforementioned cans of tonic and proceded to mount my trusty steed (an extreamly spiffing Yamaha BT1100 Bulldog). As the engine growled into life i decided that as its such a fine day (at least it was here anyway) i would take the Bulldog the more scenic/twisty route to my abode (the little fellow so loves his slightly longer walks). For some reason a little voice whispered to me "go straight home", to this i replied "not on your nelly guvnor, its a lovely day for a bimblett" so off i trundled taking in the nice scenery and twisty roads that lead towards my fine house. After a shortwhile i found myself on the descending road that leads to my rustic village, and as if someone had said Abracadabra a large white van apported into the road infront of me with no warning whatsoever! I tried in vain to outmanouver said vehicle but to no avail... The blighter stuck me in the left hand side forcing myself and my trusty steed to the ground in a large oily heap. I found myself coveyed to the the nearest hospital in a rather colourful charabang and the now dead motorbicycle was retrived from its resting place by a few of my good chums.

Here ends the news.

So thats a lighthearted way of saying i was knocked of my bike. But what i cant get out of my head was the little voice that told me to go straight home after visiting the shop.

I phoned my mum the day after to tell her what had happened and she replied with "for the last few days i've been really worried that something was going to happen to you on your bike."
And speaking to the wife she said she'd been expecting it, as the other week i had two "moments" as we call them in the biking world, and she had been expecting the third one. I her words "bad things come in threes".

As i am beaten, bruised and slightly broken but not as badly injured as i could have been, a thing came to mind that my mum said to me nearly 20 years ago when i had a similar accident and walked away with minor injuries. She said i must have a guardian angel looking out for me.
As i've mentioned before on this very forum i'm a pagan, so the angel bit doesnt work for me.

But maybe a guardian ancestor, or i am favoured by the gods destined to to great things (probably not) ??

So then people, what are your thoughts on.

Little voices ?
Bad things in threes ?
Premonition (affecting a loved one) ?
Guardian Angels/ancestors ?

errrr.... the NDE reference at the top....well... you can just ignore that bit as i didnt see myself flying down the road or my life flashing before my eyes, in all honesty it happened way too quick. More of a "Ohhhh shi.....owwww.....call me an ambulance you white van driving ****"

Look forward to your replies.

Lee.

p.s. Ian, we are still coming to see you and Ali. So you've not got away with it just because i cant walk properly Smile

p.p.s sorry for any spelling mistakes, i'm on liquid painkiller/happyness tonic at the moment drunken

There is probably a moral in that story - it could be: listen to the little voice sometimes.

I am sure that some white vans are put on the roads by a secret government body to cause chaos.

Hope all is well, not too much broken?

I believe the little voices. "Call Mum" and sure enough, her best friend has died suddenly. "Don't throw out that list" and a few minutes later find out that it's essential.

I've never been told to go straight home, but if ever I am, I will! Hope you are better soon.
