jonny, I wasn't really that drunk, the problem was that I got passed really close on the right hand side, pulled in a little, and there was a parked car there. I skidded and tried to stop, but bang into the back of it.
Got off quite lightly, just with the broken teeth - and fscked muscles on my left side. Came back up North 'cos both my parents are Doctors. A while off the bike is in order due to haematomas etc.
So, whilst the alcohol I'd had probably meant that I reacted a bit later, I don't think it was the root cause of the problem.
Cheers for your concern though!
(Oh, and I think I need a new frame, from my preliminary examination, I think I may have bent the top-tube, and headtube on mine. Excellent)
