I have just been asked to price up a job to repair this.......................

The guy was driving on the motorway when a gust of wind took his truck onto the hard shoulder and tipped it over causing him to slide along an embankment. Lucky he didn't tip onto the drivers side, other wise he wouldn't have been so lucky and neither would anyone travelling alongside him. No-one was seriously hurt. Unfortunatley, there is another truck in the same yard which I am not going to show you. It was much worse and was a fatality. So i guess the odd blown down tree or missing tiles gets put into perspective a bit.

Mike

No problem.

A bit of T-cut and that'll rub out!

 

Cats know your every thought.

But don't care.

If it's that simple, why couldn't you salvage your car???????

Surely you needed a bit of 'back to black' too?

So there
