Minor damage to Disco bumper / light lens / corner of bonnet, no damage to Andy or anybody else, and Mrs Andy was delighted as she hates the street light anyway!

Let's just say it was the result of a disconnected handbrake and inadequate chocking.  (Yes, I know, I know... )

At least no-one was hurt and the damage was limited to a stupidly located lamp-post.
