Random Thoughts, Driving
My idea of hell, I realised today would be a really tasty meal with mixed vegetables. I hate peas and I have to work really hard to remove each and every pea before eating the rest of the vegetables! When I get down to see my old pal Lucifer, this will be my eternal hell prepared especially for me.
Peas + tomatoes (but not tomato puree of other tomato - based products) are the work of Satan himself!

Looks like I jumped the gun with my good news yesterday. After my car has been passed between 3 garages, it's now "touch and go" whether the car will be repaired or whether it will be written off. Typical!

Insurance, Driving, Angry Letters
Not news of the century but I'm planning a big fight with my insurance company to get the right money for my pretty-soon-to-be-written-off car. I knew before I crashed that insurers will try every trick in the book to get out of paying you for your car, so I have no illusions about how hard this is going to be. For those who don't know, if a repair estimate is higher, insurers pay you the "market value" of your car. This "market value" is based on the manufacturer's list price. This is the price most car sales places will pay you in part exchange for your car.

Driving
I was driving along the country lanes yesterday morning and took a corner way too fast. I crashed into the grass verge, deployed my airbags and completely destroyed my front bumper. the radiator was hanging off and the transmission destroyed, too! I've got nobody to blame but myself, so I'm fairly upbeat about the whole thing! I'm gutted to have to pay for a new car but at least I'm rid of the old car - I never liked the damn thing anyway!
