What are you doing right now..? (Threads Merged)

So I've finished my night shift and am happily blasting home at 0445 at @110km/h when up flies this damned seagull and writes off my new-last-year windshield:

It'll be interesting to see how much more it will cost  to replace than it did last year.

Thanks ,they did offer me a position on another boat which is also 4n4 but this one is going to Spain for 8 months from October so holding out for it,but least if it’s the other one it’ll stil do as easy to plan trip to los.

Yup

9 months it's been in dry dock this time just along from my place.  It's been there or alongside longer than me since it launched.

Waking up to Storm Antoni. According to the forecast we're not supposed to get Force 8 winds until 1800hrs, but the local weather station is reading that now...

I guess it's another August day of coffee and TV.

Yesterday an elderly woman scraped the rear bumper of my car , whilst it was parked in a public car park .. I didn't see it , but another driver did witness it and took down her license number, the old lady drove off .. not a huge amount of damage , rear tail light scraped as well as the bumper , but my car is relatively new , so I called the police anyway ... they took the details and contacted her , meanwhile I got a quote from my garage to make it good , £600

the lady rang me and she prefers not to go through her insurance company so is sending me a cheque ..

Guy at the garage said to me I could probably just use some t cut ..

I got sideswiped on the M6 in 2019,guy admitted blame straight away & by the time we got to the next services his ins co had texted me.

Got the work done by my neighbours car body shop so afterwards I had pristine bodywork(car was 9yr old then),a free front tyre(I had an appt the following week to get both fronts replaced)and a brand new colour coded spare front wheel.

The icing on the cake was when his ins co provided me with a new MB hire car then asked me if I'd like something lesser +£300....so I said what about if I don't have a replacement car? Then we'll give you £600😁.

I've been having problems with my PC over the last few weeks but am back on line now.

On a personal note: During that time everybody in the area I live have received eviction notices in the form of two bloody great signs for all to see. I already have 3 alternatives lined up so no problem for me but my friends are struggling ...
