Brilliant new's joglynne, I do not understand why people lie in the first place makes me so mad when someone cannot admit fault :mad: Do they not realise the added stress they cause.

He didn't lie weenie, just refused to respond. Apparently it's the newest fiddle to get out of the knock on effect on your insurance. Unless there is any personal injury or third party claim involved insurance companies seemingly only try to get the other company to accept liability for a limited time then just make you liable regardless of whether it was your fault or not.

I think the reason the other driver finally owned up was because our claim against his not inexpensive Trade Car Insurance for his Vehicle Repair business was at risk of being jeopardised and the fact that I provided his insurers with a photo of him stood in front of our damaged car. The latter was pure luck but I will certainly make sure I get a similar photo if we are ever unlucky enough to have another car accident. Just wish I had thought to make a video of him verbally admitting he was at fault.

Oh sorry I just assumed he was blaming you. Joglynne hindsight is a wonderful thing but that was a really good idea the picture taking. I wish you carefree motoring now and always ;)

Been clearing out a border of brambles and weeds. Very satisfying feeding them to the garden shredder for composting.:)

Still some to do but its too nice a day to be working. Time to relax with some alcohol.

Got the barbecue out for later. Meat is defrosted, chilli burgers, touluse sausges and teriyaki chicken kebabs, and the sides are ready to roll. Just taking in some rays before we get started. :Sun:

We went away for the day to Moffat, quite a warm day but the sun never came out as we thought. Had a nice Fish Tea

Did you buy any Moffat Toffee Nashville? Moffatt is lovely hope you enjoyed your day. Hubby and his friends go a motorbike run there just to get a fish tea, when we go I insist on a cream tea then off to the sweet shop for some Moffat Toffee.

Weenie, Never tried the toffee. Must do the next time. I noticed there is always some beautiful motor bikes there at times,

Nahville it's not like the toffee we know it's more like a hard boiled sweet but I like them.
