Default Yet another delay

Will I ever get my car finished, for the last couple of months my daughter has been using my run about, but a call from her last brought news of great joy, it was coming back to me at the end of the month, but my joy was short lived, a phone call from her tuesday afternoon to say she had been involved in a accident, my first concern was she ok and was my grandson on board, she replied she was ok but shaken, and my grandson was at the nursery it seems she was driving down Cowbridge high street, when a certain person pulled out from a side road, thus leaving the car looking like this..

Firstly very relieved to hear both your daughter and grandson are ok.

That looks quite bad... is it repairable without to much work ?

'a certain person'...sound like you know the driver?

Good to hear it wasn't a bad crash and no injury, (except a bad case of whiplash perhaps )

Firstly thanks for your kind words, no I dont know the person concerned (did not want to use his name), awaiting some one to come take a look, but suspect it could be a write off, the gentleman concerned said he did not see the car as there is a house up the hill of a similar shade of bright yellow..

Do mind me asking Rob how he managed to kill himself up by Roath Park. I often walk up there with ex girlfriend and toddler in tow.

not too sure yet, though i do know the police have confirmed that Rory wasn't speeding if thats what you were thinking.

After seeing the impact site it could have been a blowout or swerving to avoid something in the road but that is purley speculation.

Rob, I just stole this word for word from the BBc news Website.

Tribute for son after road crash

Rory Wilce's parents described him as "sensitive and confident"
The parents of a 27-year-old man killed in a Cardiff road crash say he was "the best son anyone could have".
South Wales Police say Rory Wilce, of Llanishen, Cardiff, died when the Subaru Legacy estate he was driving struck a garden wall at Lake Road West at 2230 BST on Friday.

In a statement released by police, his parents said: "Everyone that knows Rory is devastated".

"He was sensitive and confident and an example to many people," they said.

"Nothing we could say will bring him back and this tragedy will stay with us forever."

Police have appealed for witnesses and anyone with any information is asked to contact 029 2057 1600 or their nearest police station.
