You dont have to be in the A team, silly boy, just a bit of common sense, I'm 61 and female, tiny and feisty and Ive boarded up and fitted broken windows in my time as well as 1001 other common sense things.
It's not rocket science.

You got things mixed up a bit, this is my post, not brettcta, what you said i quoted was wrong, it wasnt my words in the quotes.
Speaks volumes...................make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.0 -
not really, I have wasted enough time reading this post this weekend!!!!!! THe title should have been enough, someone else who wants something for nothing.
And, after all, who wants to make an informed comment? It's much more fun to accuse OP of being one of these 'greedy people ruining society with compensation culture'; all while not actually reading what he's saying and then refusing to when it's pointed out you don't even understand whose insurance he's talking about.
You'd think having such a glaring mistake pointed out to you would deter you, but nope - you just sail right past your mistake and still attack him on the same basis.
If you don't agree with what he's asking, then just don't post. Is it that hard to just not reply if you're not even going to make the effort to read his post?0 -
This is what society has become, just like America. "something has happened, whats in it for me"? Perhaps society is now too greedy0

So, so far nobody can explain my question ??!!!
And since I posted the question, those who have been so quick to judge and and insult in the thread have either been posted suspiciously silent or chose to ignore the question, take the huff and say they won't be back. Funny that, eh ?
I posted this thread cause I wanted to ask a question to, what I thought would be, smart, knowledgeable, reasonable people who could look at an arguement from both sides. What I've found was a forum full of misinformed know-it-alls who after failing to grasp the exact scenario, resort to name-calling and badgering. I'm sure most of you have managed to lose a lot of people money with your mis-information on this forum.
DWatts, thanks for taking the time to try to understand the exact scenario.0 -
We understand the thread - you just don't like the answers.
You have not suffered any financial hardship, ergo you should not receive any compensation.
The fact that you managed to possibly negotiate a discount for the insurance company should help you sleep better that day for doing a good deed but it should hardly line your pockets!Thinking critically since 1996....0
