Nice one, Satan, you sod.

Just spoken to Greg and it seems Emm's Boxter has been involved in an incident, details hazy at the mo but from what I can gather she's ok (fingers crossed).

I can't believe this: only this Sunday gone I was talking to Emm & Greg about my own near miss just as they were enjoying a wonderful day down Cotswolds way, roof down and the whole nine yards - and now this happens.

Sounds like the car may be goosed...

Oh my goodness!

I hope Emm's OK! Hope the car is too of course...but the occupant is the main thing....

Best wishes, of course, in sorting everything out with minimum pain and fuss...

Fortunately, all occupants ok; in fact, The Lady Emm gave the offending HGV driver something of a verbal chastisement since said moron appears to have rendered said vehicule unroadworthy.

Police appear to be on our man's side so all's well for insurance purposes but it looks like it's touch and go for the car.

Jeez, any incident involving an HGV is bad news. Hope the pearly king and queen are coping OK with the stress caused by this muppet's mayhem.

Oh bollock$, sorry to hear that.

At least no one was hurt.

Another plus point is the involvement of police, should speed up the resolution, but truth is that its still bloody annoying having to deal with such.

HGV's??? I fecking hate them, and most accidents I hear about lately are involving HGV's, including my incident with that shithead who bumped me! knobs.

Thanks all.

Emm is fine, bit shaken up. Julie (some of you may remember her from Brunters, she was in Big Ts car when the window jumped ship) is okay too - they were performing a site review of something or other.

In short...damage to OS door, wing, front alloy and tyre are destroyed (and tracking too no doubt). Front apron also took a beating.

Basically a lorry in the right hand lane to her moved over and didn't see her.

Car on a low loader heading to Porsche's repair HQ. Tracker already phoned us 3 times alerting us

Lorry driver has accepted liability.

Thanks again,
Greg
