I do not know if it is due to me posting this thread or mentioning my accident on"another place"but to all those"no win no fee"companies-my accident was my fault and I do not wish to sue anyone,thanks,phil.

Well done Phil, for helping keep insurance premiums down! (yes, I know it might seem like a futile gesture but it's the thought that counts).

Did anyone hear the prgramme on R4 (friday?) about car repair businesses being able to make more money by referring accident details to claims firms than by actually repairing the cars themselves. One business owner was saying that it is almost worth setting up a 'repair' business just to skim off the personal details (up to £1000 per name apparently) and then sub-contracting the actual car repairs. Madness!

This was touted as one reason why car insurance premiums are soaring even though accident rates and repairs costs have been falling in recent years. :twisted:

These firms must"cruise" the social websites,have had eight emails from "no win no fee" firms not sure quite how they learned about my accident but i only mentioned it on here,on "the other place" and my wife mentioned on "twitter" maybe it could be someone accessing the hospital records? make that nine emails I have just had another from Esther Rantzen asking me about whiplash! phil.

Perhaps the NHS is working on the same principle!

I didn't realise Esther was offering, er, 'whiplash' services. Still, that's life.

I think every man is rushing for their coats if Esther is into " whiplashing".

 

[philpjuk100]

Ahh! Esther Rantzen!

 

[Feltwell]

I do get worried about some of the male members of this forum and your choice of pin-ups. Kirsty from Location etc etc, Mrs Thatcher and now Esther Rantzen? :shock: Don't get me wrong, I've nothing against Esther, but if someone mentions her my only thoughts are of That's Life and dogs that can say "sausages"!!

 

[philpjuk100]

Ahh1 sausages!

That's the Triumph Bonneville and BSA Gold Star, for those who are not addicted to 2 wheeled transport.......

(I'll have a nice Gold Star please - if there are no Velocette Venom's laying around unclaimed)

Steady! You don't get a gold star just by asking for it.

You have to be good right through double geography and be milk monitor at break.

Perhaps you'd add a warning before posting such photos in future - quite spoiled my evening!
