I collided with a bus this morning. The bus is OK. I look like I have taken up bare knuckle boxing and chosen an opponent who was considerably better than myself.

My lip is very badly cut, I have cuts and bruises on one cheek, my hands are cut and swollen, and my ribs are very painful on one side.

I was out running on lea marshes when I saw a bus arrive at the bus stop I was heading for. I sprinted to get on it.

But just as I jumped on the driver shut the doors and they slammed into my face knocking me back on the ground. The people on the bus were unbelievably helpful and sympathetic.

I got so many gifts of packets of paper hankies (to mop up the blood) I had to turn some down.
