Bloody Shit Drivers

HarryofOz

Did they leave their contact details at least?
Baldy

HarryofOz

it just shows how civilised aussies are  

(whats wrong with him being a Queenslander?)
Baldy

Nowt wrong with qld'ers, I'm practically one mesen, when I said he was a bloody qld'er, it means he was a tourist down here, and now i gotta deal long distance to get all details and get it all sorted...
raveydavey

At least he left his details - I've had similar happen to me and the scumbag just drove off...

It's all hassle you can do without though. Don't forget your claim for out of pocket expenses and diminution, will you?
Tommo

Sorry to see your car has been damamged but on the plus side they left their contact betals. Hope you get it sorted soon.

No doubt

Have you been affected by the floods at all? I have no idea where Ballina is.

Shocked You've probably seen tv showing Northern Rivers of NSW is flooded, IE : Lismore, Kyogle, Coraki, Casino, Murwillumbah, etc etc, well we are up that way, but we are on the coast at the mouth of the Richmond River, so all there water has to pass by us to reach the ocean,
we are 1 hour south of Tweed Heads, 20 mins south of Byron Bay..

AUS$1460 - isn't that about £14.50?  

Something else to blame the Greens for - if the vehicle repair industry is anywhere near as strangulated with red tape as it is over here, the government will be seeing a fair wedge of that.

New Bumper? Seems a bit extreme to me to replace the whole bloody lot.. surely the body panel bloke should be able to re-fix the existing one and make it good again?

depends on the creasing that has occured on the outside and the manufacturer of the car

Good luck for later then

I may be heading up your way around the time of Euro 2008. A couple of mates and I are thinking of spending a week up north for a week or so.

A really good friend of ours (Janet we'll call her, not her real name), who lives in Rothwell, was out shopping one day when she hit a car on the way out of the shopping centre.  She couldn't find the owner so she left her details.

She got home and told her husband (who is a builder and an all round daft bastard, john we'll call him, not his real name) what had happened.  He said she was daft for leaving the details, but she said he would have hated it had someone else did it to him.  He agreed and carried on with painting the living room ceiling.

A while later her friend called to say she had seen what had happened and mentioned that the car belonged to one of the hardest men in Rothwell, a real life nasty piece of work.  Imagine the look on Johns face, inbetween calling her all the daft cows etc..

A while later still, John was still painting the living room ceiling when a knock on the door, janet answered to see this man mountain at the door.  She invited him in and explained what had happened.  He stood there all silent listening to the explanation.  just as Janet was ending her description, John got down from his ladder and said to Janet " Right love, this is all I can do today, I'll call back round first thing in the morning and finish the job."  With that he picked up all his gear put it all in the back of his van and drove off, leaving Janet, gob wide open and chin on floor, with this monster of a bloke.

Bloke said he could get the damage sorted for 50 quid.  she gave him the money and all sorted.  However, she didn't have a decent thing to say to John when he got back in.  Guess who was in the dog house for weeks for that stunt? Laughing  Laughing  Laughing  

Now that I would have paid to watch..
