The walk from the station had taken about 40 minutes. For the return, it was now dark and Arlesey is not well endowed with street lighting, so there would be a need to take things carefully, leaving no chance of catching the 17.24 train. JCFC therefore took things carefully and steadily. About two thirds of the way completed, there was a road leading to a residential cul-de-sac on the left. Careful checking revealed no traffic in sight, so JCFC started to cross. Halfway across, (it begins to sound like Hoffnung's bricklayer) two headights suddenly appeared from nowhere. (A subsequent check on Google maps shows a hidden car park) JCFC therefore broke into what passes for a run, but the junction had a fan exit onto the main road and JCFC was still short of the pavement when bumped by the car., ending up on the road, much to the consternation of the driver. Apparently he had set off without waiting for his windscreen to demist and had only just slammed on his brakes at the last minute. The actual contact had caused no damage, but the road surface had weighed in with a swollen left knee, a dodgy right ankle and grazes to hand, nose and forehead, but fortunately nothing serious. The driver produced a towel to wipe the blood away and offered me a lift, asking where I was heading. On hearing  "to the station" he asked what I was going to do there - catch a train, of course. So a lift was provided to the station - the driver seeming more shocked than JCFC. And of course, every cloud has a silver lining - we arrived in time to avoid an hour's wait for the next train. All's well that ends well.

Oh my goodness. Hope you are recovering well JCFC. Sending hugs
