It was Mike Tyson who noted that “everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face”. My plan had been to go for an early evening post-dinner walk — and it had been going fine until I got punched in the face.
It was around 7.30pm on a main road near my home. It was still light and the street was busy. I was minding my own business when I saw a man walking along the street coming from the opposite direction. I didn’t pay him any attention until he started punching a man who was a little ahead of me. I didn’t want to be next so I moved to the very edge of the pavement but the man was not to be denied. He turned towards me and started to punch me. He made contact two or three times before I was able to swerve past him and continue my walk.
