Bit down. Yesterday when coming back from the shops, the right front wheel practically snapped off the car while I was driving it. It was very scary but I'm thankfully okay & I managed to park it up somewhere safe. Going to have to retire it though, as it's old & not really worth spending any more on it to keep it running. Going to have to get used to public transport for now. As well as cycling to shops or wherever.
Turns out it's wasn't as disastrous as previously thought. Here's the piece the broke. The front right wishbone. Not a massive amount to replace it.

I missed this, but must have been so scary! Glad you’re okay and hope your back is also feeling better.

It was scary. I couldn't stop shaking for ages after. Today I got the car back, fixed. It was slightly daunting driving again after that experience. The back is looking like it could be a sciatic nerve issue again which, although it hurts lake a bastid, I know how to manage at least

It's great that you're mostly unscathed. How old is the car? That broken piece looked ancient!

It's pretty old. You'd expect parts to start corroding if they haven't been replaced already. Just lucky I wasn't on the highway doing 90kmph or I probably wouldn't be here today

Today I discovered that I am a grandfather to an imaginary baby. I do not know the name, age or sex of the child. My son has invented a child so that he can join a single fathers' football team!

Thank you gongoro73 and kirstie The worst is over and funeral was already. Next comes things about the legacy and such.
I know from my brother-in-law's experience how much time and energy that can take. I hope it is not too stressful for you and that you have good help. Remember to be good to yourself.
