    Hmm, nice. irfanview is good, but this does give more flexibility.

    Started overtaking a couple of cars when the one in front turned
    right, across me into a private driveway. I don't recall seeing an
    indicator but I am sticking my hand up to poor observation /
    anticipation [3].

    I braked hard, lost the front and the bike hit the car on the
    rear-bumper a couple of feet in from the offside. I was thrown clear
    and surfed the tarmac to an uneventual stop without hitting anything
    significant [1]. A bruised toe [2] and some minor bruising to the
    shoulders.

    It was on the Bicester to Thame road coming out of the left-hander
    (just after the railway crossing) onto the straight with the dips at
    the end. The driveway was for a kennels/cattery which I never knew
    was there even though I have ridden that road many times.

    [1] The helmet tapped the road a couple of times.

    [2] I have the toenail if you are interested.

    [3] As indeed does the car-driver "SMIDSY" he said.
