Drivers in Perthshire met an unusual hazard when they discovered pots and pans littering the road. Earlier this month, artist Stepharia Scott (43) was flummoxed by the debris strewn in her way, which was hard to spot because it was dark at the time she was passing through.
“There’s a load of pots and pans lying all over the road from Aberagie to Abernethy,” she warned other residents. “I think a delivery van must have lost its load.”
Providing an update to locals, she added: “We hit a crockpot. No idea if there’s damage to the car until we can check in the light, but best to be careful in case you hit a frying pan on your travels.”
Other Abernethy residents responded: “We also hit a pan, went with a clatter under our car. Was going to post but felt a little silly typing that there was pots and pans on the road.” Another driver spoke of her disbelief: “I thought I was imagining things.”
Stepharia told the PA: “There was minimal damage to the car, but it was quite alarming to hit a random crockpot, at speed, in the pitch dark. Seeing frying pans and other pots floating around was rather surreal, and not what you expect to encounter on your journey home.
“We almost wondered if we were entering a new pan-demic, but as potluck would have it, errant frying pans were the only threat to the village. I believe someone called the police and they sent out a unit to clear the debris.”
Self-employed Neil McNaughton (42), who was at the wheel when the cookware chaos happened, shared a picture of the kitchen gear he’d clunked.
