Default Not a good start

Went to a car boot sale this morning, wont be going again, too much market for me.
I had just overtaken 2 cars on a dual carriageway and as we were approaching traffic lights decided not to go back to lane 1. On the other side of the lights two pigeons were in my lane and so I drifted towards lane 1, planning to pass the pigeons on my off side. Alas one had other ideas.
Nothing seems broken on the car.

All I bought was a 17mm socket.

Once home the day got better, using a circular saw did not make anywhere near the mess I was expecting and the wood I was cutting cut easier then I was expecting. My bricklaying however is still as rubbish as it always has been.

Guess I'd better pick the feathers out of the wing!

Update,
either the bumper sits differently offside to near side of the headlight on the offside has been pushed back which seems strange as I did not think there was any backwards movement in them.
