YAY......Brilliant. Right, I'm off to the pub for some festive cheer and a spring in my step. The Miracle of Christmas occurred....

I know it's not funny and I shouldn't laugh, and I'm sure you didn't, but :)) :)) :))


ETA: Glad it all had a happy ending, Willard.

Delighted with the outcome, a testament to persistence. And mathematics.


Sue, I imagine it wouldn't have been so funny had it not been a rental car that I was using for work. And the fact that two days later a very identifiable Hovis truck crashed into the same spot. So we let them fix it.

I think most people are nice and will do the right thing, even if it involves taking a bit of time.


It's just that we tend to hear about the ones who aren't nice and don't do the right thing.


And sometimes it's not that people are bad, it's that they are shy or in a hurry or don't want to interfere ...


Anyway, what a heartwarming start to Christmas with a story like the above :)

    • Disagree. Where are the police when you need them? People want a police presence, they want to feel reassured by seeing them do what the word suggests, policing, so go catch some bad guys, arrest, charge and get the CPS to prosecute with the evidence to enable this to happen. Stabbing and shootings are so common place they no longer even get reported in the public domain. How many crimes don't get solved? Rather case closed and forgotten. The number of low to high level crimes which remain unsolved is staggering.  The criminal fraternity know this, they know they won't get caught so they just carry on.  Biggest crimes which affect most people, probably are phone and car theft, both are prolific and what do the police do, diddly squat. zilch, nothing, provide a crime reference number and the case is closed. Not good enough, not by a country mile.   Met Engage? I don't think so.
    • https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/violent-crime-plunges-london-homicide-rate-b1247078.html Worth doing a little checking before making assumptions about violent crimes. Recent data suggests a drop in violent crime. Gang violence will make a significant contribution to the numbers. You are unlikely to be attacked by a stranger   
    • Unfortunately there are plenty of shops which don't care and will sell vapes, alcohol and weed to minors, I'm sure they won't care about selling them fireworks. Or the kids nick them.
    • It’s getting a bit annoying. We’ve a nervous dog who trembles when they go off. I know to expect it around Halloween and Diwali but it seems to be happening more through the year.
