I have been suffering from a bad knee my Doc said given my age we should get it Xrayed to check. I fronted up at 8:30 in the morning on Monday and was sitting down to fill in the paperwork in the chair you see. My wife was sitting on the right in a chair right beside me. All of a sudden the was a almighty bang I looked around to see the glass all shattered my wife followed my lead as I jumped away from the window. The overriding sound was a car reving well past the red line which gave away the cue to the whole story. The lady put her foot not on the brake but the accelerator . She hit the small brick wall and that brought her to a stop if not for that my wife and I would have been in a very bad way. never will I just sit any where with out thinking on this kind of result. Thankfully the glass held as there was a film of dark window tinting on the out side surface. Yes my knee is old but it is Ok it was the strains on the surrounding tissue
