Still, at least *you* managed to keep it the right way up, unlike Curly.
That must be a shred of consolation.

I also managed to avoid painting it green, but it's not that diffcult.
How did he manage to roll one anyway, given that its weight balance and low CoG are some of its best features.

Never underestimate the danger of middle-aged jeans and haircut. All that weight pushed upwards by wearing the wrong-sized strides; it's like balancing a pendulum the wrong way up.

I can only assume he found a kerb to catch the left wheels on. Though it didn't look like the kind of place that has gratuitous kerbing lying about.

It's the sort of place where they carefully scrape down the edges of the kerbs, lest anyone catch their jeans on them.

I've been looking for some time.
Once I have space, I even have A Cunning Plan which I should have done originally (1925 Sunbeam Tiger lookalike), so as to lay a few ghosts.
Doing it properly...
