          I would like to say thanks to We Buy Any Car. Just short of a year ago a mate at a local garage gave me a call to say a customer was selling a car and would I be interested. The chap was selling this car (2nd Car) cos his wife was giving up driving. The chap gave them a call and they made such a derisory offer, he said the first person with cash to give him what they offered could have it. I asked him if he was sure and feeling guilty even offered him more than he was asking, He said he was happy to stick to his price. I have had the car just short of a year. (MOT and the end of the month) put 30k miles on the clock and its still worth twice what they offered him.

          I'm glad they have been screwed, they would even give Arfur Daily a bad name.

            Oh by way of a postscript, Lady Hooray has pranged her panzer on the opposite side, but on the same wall and railings as two weeks ago
            Could I fix the scratches, Yes I said as soon as I have welded on a new rear wing.
            Please note this is in no way derisory to all the good Lady drivers out there (when you find one let me know)

              this happend last week, guess what ? it was a women bus driver



              A road has reopened after being closed when a double-decker bus crashed into a railway bridge.
              The vehicle became lodged under the bridge.
              It suffered severe damage to the upper deck, and appeared to be wedged.
              Luckily, there were no passengers on board at the time of the accident.
              The railway line was also shut while the bridge was checked for structural damage, but this has also reopened.

                Re: Problem with your car?

                All this Sunny weather reminds me of a story I was sent a couple of years ago.
                A couple were pulling into the car park at their local supermarket one Saturday morning when a loud grinding noise came from underneath the car. The man sent his wife to do the shopping while he crawled under the car to look for the problem.

                When she returned there was a crowd around the car. A pair of legs were sticking out from underneath, The attraction was that the legs were sticking out of a pair of shorts and handing out of the leg of the shorts was the owners Marital Equipment.

                She did what any good wife would do. She got hold of the offending digit and deftly tucked it back inside the shorts.

                There was a crack from under the car as the owner of the shorts jerked upright splitting his head open.
                The wife heard a voice next to her asking "What have you done" and turned to find Hubby standing next to her.

                An ambulance had to be called and the poor AA mechanic taken for stitches to a gash in his scalp.

                Remember Shorts and Car repair don't mix.
                Regards to all, Handy.

                        If you have NOT read about the AA piece about cancellations, its worth reading, considering the above 'Insurance Premiums 'was conducted by the AA.
