No, I'd be coming for a spirited drive if that was working. ;)

Since this is only a couple of weeks away, can we have an indication of numbers so I can reserve a table for lunch? Stick your name below if you're still coming.

Ok so you're going to have to take me back off the list for the meet. Got home from work at quarter to four last night after work (same every day since wednesday last week :( ) to find the stupid bint I'd mentioned on here with the smashed up people carrier has "reversed" (at about fucking 20 miles an hour by the look of it) into the front of the 911, caving the bumper in and ripping it off its mountings. FML.

I just stared at it in disbelief without even the energy to get angry. :?

Just unbelievable.

That sucks arse mate, sorry to see it.

Aye, that's shite.

Main reason I've not got something nice yet, I don't want to leave it parked on the street and I can't find a lock up here with the space I need.

Yep - she lives on the street. She left a note presumably on the basis that if she didn't and I found out she'd be in big trouble. I'm sure there was a healthy amount of not wanting to get caught rather than anything else.

Not sure gaffer tape would quite do it here as she's impressively manged to rip it off its mountings which I guess is going to mean a lot of flapping around at 90mph :(

That's a pisser. Has she actually apologized? I'm sure a nice hefty bill for the repair will make her see the error of her wa.... On second thoughts, probably not.

NO.

You can't let the stupidity and carelessness of other people dictate your own decisions. Unless you actually want to be Nathan.

It's a car. Cars can be fixed. So get it fixed and move past it.

Ring accident helpline that someone will recommend in 3-2-1.. and as everyone else says, get it fixed. Good luck, hope it's reasonably stress free.
