[QUOTE="Flog, post: 890604, member: 73645"] Actually, my time there was more eventful than I would have liked, I wasn't going to mention it but as it's now a topic in itself... Maria sent her daughter to meet me outside the polideportivo with the keys. The young woman pulled up right outside the gates and left her 4 year old daughter in the car while she briefly showed me the set up with the locker room, showers etc. Not wanting to detain her more than was necessary, I was eager for her to leave me to it, so after thanking her and hearing the door close behind her, I quickly undressed for the shower. Ten seconds later I heard a scream and the sound of running footsteps and stepping up on the bench, pulled myself up to the high window to see what was going on outside. There was the poor girl running down the middle of the road after her runaway car. I hastily pulled on my shorts and after fumbling with the keys, ran outside to find her car had rolled about 200 metres down the road, bashed up onto the opposite footpath and onto the grass embankment where it mercifully came to a halt. By the time I got to her, she was sitting on the ground crying in shock, clutching her little girl in her lap having pulled her from the car. A crowd quickly gathered as always happens in Spain and I left them to it, there was enough confusion without me adding to the drama. I messaged Maria later that evening to enquire if they were all ok and she happily reported that apart from being badly shaken, mother, daughter and car were fine. I was relieved.. I too was very shaken by the whole incident and it no doubt contributed to my lack of sleep... [/QUOTE]
