You should definitely consider paying out a bit more initially for a Sky+ box. It justifies the package price as you know that when you're not at home you still won't miss the things you want to watch. That's as long as you remember to set the programme to record before you go out of course :)...

Does anyone know of any online stores that supply parts. I'm trying to get a rough idea of how much it would set me back for a brand spanking new Mk3 rear bumper. I had a quote of £350 from the garage that do all the work for the dealership that I got my car from and I'm wondering how that...

Oh yea, I also don't think my friend is aware I'm going through my insurance. She emailed me this morning asking if I'm talking to her and I said yes. She then went on to tell me that she has had enough of her job and has resigned. That makes me think that her insurance company haven't notified...

I registered a claim with my insurance company last week for this accident and at the weekend I received a letter notifying me that the company insuring the person I'm making a claim against is connected to the company that insures me. They basically wanted to re-assure me that a different firm...

Boot the machine into safe mode and then try uninstalling Office.

Re: what brakes are the best?? :D

Actually that's the one thing I haven't checked yet. Looking at the damage externally I'd be surprised to see ripples in the boot floor but I didn't witness the strength of the impact so it's possible.

It's not the fact she hit my car that has caused issues, yea fair enough driving into a stationary car is a bit of a 'Dur' moment but it's an accident and accidents happen. It's the bare face lies she has been telling that's caused problems. But it doesn't matter now, I'm not warning her about...

To be honest I'm fairly tempted to go through my insurance now anyway. The bumper has been slightly mis-shaped by the bump, the paint has cracked around the main scuff and there's more smaller marks that I didn't notice before. A couple of places I got a quote from said they could heat the...

I was thinking of doing that. Phoning her and asking her if she's sure it wasn't her as I have to go through insurance and no doubt the police would need to get involved and also mention that there will be a witness statement. But I don't think she's bright enough to understand the seriousness...

I don't really want to go through insurance for how small the damage is. Don't think it's worth screwing up my no claims and premium to be honest. Can't say I wouldn't wanna see her sh*t herself when she gets done for driving off though :).

As you said, stooping to her level. Although my mind did briefly wander on to the Pug 206cc she is hoping to get fairly soon. But I scrubbed that thought fairly quickly :quiet: Now that I like :D

You've hit the nail on the head there. The more I push for the truth from her the more I'm getting fustrated so I'm getting the damage sorted and then leaving it at that. She just emailed me to say "i had a look at mine in FULL daylight and theres not ONE mark on my car. . . " and she again...

Had a look last night. I couldn't see any blatant evidence of contact but her car isn't exactly in pristine condition and it was dark. Picking one of the marks on her car as a match to mine wouldn't have been easy but hopefully looking at it during the daytime might throw something up.

I can't see her backing down to be honest. I phoned her twice, made her aware that it was witnessed, told her about the paint. At one point she tried reversing the whole thing by calling me and telling me she wasn't very happy about the situation of me phoning her up and that she didn't need to...
