Well done to you for owning up to it and taking responsibility, hope you find him and sort it all out

If I limp into G and B with a cycle helmet on do you think I can claim a free bottle?

Nah...I tried earlier! Wouldn't have it!

Well done for 'fessing up and making the offer of restitution GWBB.

So let's see. You're honest, work in a grog shop and your way of apologising is to dole out bottles of Blue Nun or as it might be Black Tower.

If you're a spinster then I expect every batchelor in the parish to be laying siege to G&B right pronto.

Seriously though, you did a good thing.

...as long as you take your own bag to carry stuff back from G&B though....I was really surprised to be refused a bag after walking in to pick up some decent beers and wine...next time I will park my 4x4 outside!! in the end I just bought my beers from somerfield...

but yeah good of gwbbb to confess..I am a fellow cyclist....and would do the same :)

[Sandperson]

What I don't understand is how you didn't find out if the bike was damaged when you had the accident? Did you hit them, jump up and run off?

[Sue]

Yeh I'm not terribly clear why it wasn't sorted at the time. I assumed shock :)

Nice blather Katie, a somewhat pissed-up account of possibly pissed-up encounter. Well done.

It's about honesty and doing the right thing when it would have been easier to not bother.

Anyway Katie97, welcome to the EDF, as for pisssed-up blather, I invented it girlfriend.

Sober discourse will follow, but you'll not see much of me in dat yard.

Once again welcome, stick around, sit a spell.

I'm thinking this could have a romantic thread...maybe girl with blue bike took a shine to the crashed man on bike and wants to meet again. Or do I watch too much telly?
