boom! there’s a winner!

thank you all so much for taking the time to answer the tricky question in the last giveaway.

the answer is c] hit by a motorbike.

whilst crossing the road to catch the bus to school, a motorbike [an off duty policeman on his trail bike] came out of nowhere, hit me and dragged me several metres. my scar is from the front tyre together with gravel from the side of the road. i was taken to hospital where doctors/nurses? carefully scrubbed away the gravel inbedded in my leg. i remember having to remove the dressing to clean it, then applying new dressing every day for weeks.
i remember it hurt…. a lot.

well done to Thomas, Nora, Anna, Marni and Belinda for guessing correctly.
your names were put into the kitchen colander and m picked out a winner….

    ewww. i’m feeling that leg scrub…
    i had a similar stack in year 12 when a car clipped me on my bicycle…
    thankfully not so embedded with road gravel as you but i will NEVER forget the scrubbing of my thigh to remove the dirt and gravel. oh, the pain. and the dressings.
