Received a phone call from hubby yesterday afternoon"hi now don't worry but the cars a write off!" :

Yes Andy totalled his beloved scorpio ultima, the one we had a buyer for when we emigrated.

Two hours later had a phone call from the estate agents after only 3 weeks on the market someone has made an offer on our bungalow. Only 2k under the asking price.

Well they do say every cloud has a silver lining.

Cheers

Excellent news, I only hope my house sells as quick... not wishing for the same for my car though!!

What a pain, lets hope insurance pay out more than you would get selling it, that would be a right result. hope you didn't get hurt. Was it your fault ? if not a nice whiplash claim might come in handy.

No andy wasn't hurt thank god. There was a guy who watched it all and said it was just so slow but there wasn't a thing he could do.

Andy was coming off the roundabout about 15 mph it was raining and the back end slid out he mounted the kerb and went 50ft along it and his back end then slid up the barrier!!!!!! Petrol tank went bang and the tyres were horizontal.

We will find out tomorrow about the insurance keeping our fingers crossed.

The emergency services were great in 2 mins there were air ambulance, ambulance and police.

Andy felt so embarrassed.

Cheers

The silver lining also includes not being hurt. Could of changed any plans you had for a long time.

I know how he feels.

I went to see a specialist the other day because I had an injury after tripping on a pavement. He asked me what I did straight after the fall.

Look round to make sure knowone saw me says I.

Sue you are completely right. I must admit we do the what if's for a couple of minutes.

Karawara hope your injury gets sorted.
