Van Crash
Thanks to blizzard conditions yesterday we had an unusual visitor to The Farm, attempting to arrive through our hedgerow! Fortunately no one was hurt, and it was brought to my attention by a queue of vehicles forming where usually you don’t see any.
It caused a few problems for passing traffic, with a coach and lorry having to reverse and take alternative routes. Eventually someone arrived to tow the van out. The van appeared to be un-damaged, shame I cannot say as much for the hedgerow! They did not hang around to ‘exchange details’.
We tracked down the company who owns the van today, and after a few calls and comments like ‘but it’s just a field’ they have agreed to pay (what I am sure will be) a relatively small fee to repair it. (Though some initial reluctance was rather surprising…what if it was a car/fence/wall etc.) I think they were more surprise we tracked then down! 
Hopefully rather than rip out damaged part and re-plant we are hoping to push it back into place.
