Assault with a Deadly Suitcase

I nearly plummeted to my dead this morning.

Oh, by the way, please excuse the exaggeration I have small injuries and am milking it for all that its worth.

On my way to work I was standing on the escalator at Kings Cross reading my book ('Housekeeping', thanks mum) and minding my own business when my feet were swept from under me by a huge (see apology for exaggeration above) suitcase. Some ejit had let go of their case a few steps behind me and it had tumbled down until it hit the backs of my legs. I nearly pulled my arm from its socket hanging on to the rail so that I didn't go flying.

So, no tragedy really. Probably won't even have any bruises but my legs and my arm hurt a bit so I'm fishing for sympathy!
