AN INSPECTOR CALLS

Here's the story: during our travels last week we were driving north on the M5 one dark and stormy night when a complete wanker very silly man in a big Jag went tearing past us at high speed only to aquaplane and lose control around the next bend, bounce off the embankment at the side and break his car into several pieces. Two of the pieces were his front wheels, one of which went under our car and got wedged between our front wheels. Miraculously, nobody was hurt, and just as miraculously, once the police and AA turned up and had a look they pulled his wheel out and pronounced our car roadworthy, with a few loose bits that would need seeing to. I drove the 300 miles home very carefully but without further incident (apart from another utter bastard very naughty HGV driver trying to bully me by flashing and hooting six inches behind me in some speed restricted roadworks).

Anyway… here's the insurance assessor having a look this afternoon. What's the betting that we'll end up out of pocket in some way or other?
