Eyepiece case casualty

This is what happened after a long observing session last night.
Driving out of the observing field, I feel a bump while driving out on a dirt road. I then stopped to see what it was ( I almost kept going ). I then walked back along the road to find my eyepiece case had fallen out the side door of the van as I did not close it properly. The case was squashed and broken from running over it. I was so lucky I stopped, and so lucky the tyre only caught the edge of the case, as all the contents appear OK. Dont worry, I have given myself an UPPERCUT as punishment. I hate to think what may have happened if I kept driving and lost the other bits and pieces out of the van as well.
