be stretched out on one's Chesterfield | растянуться на диване (I was cycling west on Wall Street in Round Cape when I heard a crash behind me. Quickly I went back and saw a car bumper, then noticed the fence was gone. A car had flown across Wall Street coming down the hill on Renfrew Street. It missed me by seconds.
