Not that good a day :(
 

Off the moterway and down the A roads.. stopped in a traffic jam... WHAM!

"I only took my eye off for two minutes" said the dopey git who ran into the back of us... Took ten minuts to close the boot of the car... everyone with aches and pains that miraculously dissapeared at 2-0 up :)

Oh well... claim time....

Re: Not that good a day :(
 

Oh heck, hope everyone is ok!! I often take my eye off the road for two minutes... not. Does the dopey git not realise how far you can travel in two minutes!! :mad:

It wasn't that woman, who was caught putting her makeup on with both hands this week whilst driving, that did it?

Glad you're all ok.

Tony, You'll do anything to get your hands on that money for new kit next season! LOL

Re: Not that good a day :(
 

Hope you're ok. A similar thing happened to Chris last year, his car was a write off and the other guy accepted full responsibility but it still took about three months before they sorted the insurance out. So, good luck!

Re: Not that good a day :(
 

Thanks.. Car seems drivable although the boot is usless.. Also I have to worry what hidden damage might be done and how useless the back in is now if I was to be rearended again..

Me and wife in front with Iain, Budmak and Will in the back.. all complained of aches and everyone said it would be worse in morning.. However Julie and I are OK today.. havent spoken to the back three

Just going through insurance stuff now.. guess i gotta go through all the rigmarole now,... Anyays all ok and car usable so... life goes on... thanks for the thoughts people:)

Re: Not that good a day :(
 

I see a nice new lens on its way to your house Kipax!

Seriously, take it easy, I was hit from behind in 99, I still get pain across my shoulders from it.

Go to teh docs and get a referral to physio. They will make sure your muscles get back full travel etc.

Re: Not that good a day :(
 

Shame that EF600 was damaged, wasn't that your favourite lens:rolleyes:

Re: Not that good a day :(
 

Seriously Tony, despite our little asides, get to the docs & get checked up. Back injuries dont always show up & can come out several days later. If you do finish up making a claim for personal injury it will strengthen the claim having this on yourmedical records & the doc wont charge for the exam, but may get you a quicker referal to physio to put things right. I got lamped a year last Sept while parked by a car travelling at full speed so know what you r going thru. "Fill the form in including your name & address-excuse me but didn't you send me the damn thing?"

Re: Not that good a day :(
 

Insurance company been on today .. I get the feeling they can smell blood and it aint mine.... "anyone hurt".."no"..."are you sure, we have claim forms for everyone"

there gonna take the car away to be assesed and I get a hire car that I can keep until the claim finished and for a week or so after i get paid if i want.. there falling over themselves to help me and nothing too much trouble... I have never made a claim before and I am surprised at the speed and help I am getting and the advice and everything else. really truly looking after me..

www.elephant.co.uk cheap and very very good it seems:)

Look on the bright side Kipax, you won't need to spend any money getting that spare key cut now.

All that matters is that no one was hurt. A car is a tin box with wheels, thats all.
