Anyway, since meeting on here back in about 2006, we have become very good friends and I was shocked to see her on the news last night after a car drove right through her garage and into her back yard.

A very lucky escape!

It was on the TV last night, not sharing anything that's not already out there.

Says a lot about the method of constructing houses when such a small car can do that much damage.

Don't disagree with the comment on standard of building, but I would estimate the damage was more based on the power of velocity rather than the size of the vehicle.

Without meaning to distract from sympathy to the house owner. Would you not expect alot more of these incidents from the young drivers in the way they hoon around?
