It’s called "I’m getting too old for this sheet" syndrome - hit me when I got to 50...

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

I was talking to a young cousin of mine the other day... He's 23 or something - and he was saying that he was doing a trip to NY for work and how it was great to be NY, etc... and I was saying that when I was doing the trips first of all (when I was younger) I'd stay in NY and take the ferry each morning to NJ (as that's where the office is) because eating out in NY was great, etc.... now I just stay in NJ, in a hotel that's 2 minutes from the office, and going in NY seems like such an ordeal...

A new branch of the KFC franchise opened in Stevenage a few months ago. Me and a coworker went there after work tonight. Suffice it to say, after what we witnessed and the shocking customer service, that branch (and indeed the franchise) will not be getting our business again.

No car at all from tomorrow as the insurance company have decided to write our 14 year old car off without any say whatsoever in the matter despite the car being very much roadworthy as my OH had a slight accident the other day which basically caused no damage at all to either car.:(:(:td::td:

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Can you not buy the car off them?

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

No because as l say they made their decision and that was that SnoopZ as we had no say at all in the matter.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Did you have to accept their offer, when negotiating you could have asked for the car to be included then

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Normally a class D write-off (damaged but repairable) you can claim the salvage for a nominal sum and then use second hand parts to repair it.

They write cars off on the basis of how much a perfect repair by a garage or bodyshop costs.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Yes we had to accept their offer TD as they never gave us that alternative as you have stated as were were talking to our neighbour last night about it as her son had to do the same without any say whatsoever in it as the insurance companies seem to be increasingly doing this in regards to older cars from what our cousin hears.
