Andy

PLONK !

ANDY

 

People celebrating the Birth of Christ today were puzzled as to the whereabouts of the Eastern Star.

In other news, Three blokes were seen wandering the hills looking lost

Andy

 

Thanks for all the sympathy

I think the rock was designed to stop traffic on grass

Merry Christmas

Tony

WHAT the hedge wasn't enough !!!!!!!


Andy

 

Well, it all depends on how much you want to impress a girl.

...sorry Tony, that looks like it's gotta suck!

 

if the rock is there on purpose it sticks out onto the highway.

small claims court mate

 

Most definitely it sticks out onto a public highway must be breaking many laws, its just plain dangerous.

 

looks like it sticks out into a car park actually.
Is that still classed as highway

looks like others have scraped it too, by the debris left round it.

Andy

 

Public road so will try to sue council

Tony

 

go for it Tony.

dozy pillocks sticking it out into the road [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Andy

 

Ouch!

Bad Luck, It was just waiting to jump out at you wasn't it!

Hope you get it fixed soon.

try and forget it for now, its only metal and money after all.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year anyway!

 

Tony, try and get as many pics of it as you can, different angles etc.. 'the council' can try some rather devious tricks to get out of paying..
'its the angle you took the photo Sir'
No one likes to see that mate
Rob

 

Jeez!!! [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Really sorry for you Tony

Where did it happen? (just so I ca nwatch out for it too!!!)

See you at the weekend m8...

Starting Gate @ 12pm?

Dan

 

Will you keep us posted Tony??? It's exactly the sort of thing where it's really useful to find out, in case one has a similar problem oneself! And even better if it's then kept in a Golden Posts Forum......

Phil

 

Ouch

 

ooooerrrr missus...that would be some mean feat


cheers kev

 

Dan,
It was at Whitecross roundabout ( You can see the monument in back ground) The slip road going to the Shops). I went back the next morning (Xmas day) to find it fully in the hedge and even more scrapes on it
Also you can see a wheel trim on the road obviously another casaulty

Tony

 

i think you might have a case for a claim (imop) the roads are ment to be keped clear for the trafic to use ( by your local council) and it sticking out on to the road is not keeping it clear now is it .



g

 

i may be wrong....but i think your pushing the whole A.W.D thing a bit far taking on a rock like that...easy thing to do...drive up the road the other way and do the drivers door in...you then have flashes...not damage...kinda adds to the cars look in a way..gives it that used look...and the 02 needs all the help it can get on the looks front..cheer up...its xmas..p.s - id be on the phone wanting some $$$$$ from the roads people..or..you drop it of in the middle of ther entrance and see how like trying to squeeze by it..

 

get mattyb's lad on the case tony!!

 

I have rung the Local highway Dept at the council they are sending a complaints form

Rough guess £1200-£1500 new wheel/wing/door respray I don't do filler

Tony

 

Jeez Tony - amazing what a 1 ton rock can do to a piece of tin !!!

Good job I weren't in the passenger seat - you can't blame me for this one

Merry Xmas M8 See you later

 

Bad luck Tony, just hope you get compensated
Rob.

 

Blue,
Knowing your luck I would have bounce of it damaging both sides LOL

Sparks,
Cheers I'll show you tomorrow
Tony
