These guys should buy lottery tickets
Three men on a fishing trip had a lucky escape when a 40 tonne lorry careered off a road and crashed just 2ft from one of their tents.
The men, from Hartlepool, were camping beside Auchenreoch Loch, Crocketford, nine miles from Dumfries, when the crash happened at 0400 BST on Saturday. The lorry left the A75 Gretna-Stranraer road, went down an embankment, crashed into trees and landed beside the tent.
The driver, 66, from Mauchline in Ayrshire, received serious injuries.

items. No blood or gore or fatal car accidents or fires or cameras stuck in the face of grieving parents or any of the other “news” that your TV proudly presents. There will be some occasional tech stuff but mostly just general interest items. Links back to my source can be found at the bottom left of each post. Go to those links. It will make the bloggers happy and encourage them to do more. Enjoy.
