[TR] Is this a first?

I had read somewhere that it is believed that great many unexplained
automotive fatalities were caused by what you just described - somebody
panics, loses control and then there is nothing left but a smoking hole in
the ground and unanswered questions.

Sunday afternoon, 5pm: after doing yard work all day, I decided to take my
small-mouth TR3 out for a spin.  Coming up a country road at around 80, I
felt a sharp pain in my neck, followed shortly thereafter by an equally
sharp pain in my chest.  A wasp (or hornet, or whatever) had flown down my
open-neck shirt and wasn't happy.  Neither was I !!

 

Trying to stop the car and extricate myself from my four-point harness while
being stung must have been a  hilarious picture!

 

Finally I pulled over and removed the little so-and-so from my abdominal
wall.

 

I am allergic to all kinds of stings, so here I am with 4 enormous welts
ranging from my neck to my navel.

 

But don't we love our little British cars  :)
