oh pissed its always worst when you think that a accident could have been prevented, glad your ok to tell the story always remember it could have been worse so now time for you to shop for a new car when your back on your feet and your confidence is restored.
The past is history, the future is a mystery, today is a gift that why it is called the present!!

rush hour wasnt half as bad as i thought it was gonna be....but then i guess it never is! lol

am at the end today of a long battle with the insurance company who tried to offer me a ridiculously low price for my car. Ive dug my heels in and sent them countless wingey emails and finally they have buckled and gave me the price i asked for.

Feel like ive won the blooming lottery...ive actually got my own way with a big faceless company!

Great news about the car Betty Boop! Hope you manage to get something nice.

Going back to old drivers.... last week, an 84 year old crashed into (and injured) two pedestrians in my town.... He was arrested. I guess it would have been better if someone had just taken away his license before then.

My mum says some oldies cannot remember which is the brake and which is the accelerator! :noo:
