    I never realised it was a trial either.

    No doubt we'll be chasing them for weeks to come for our 500points:o

    I had an incident today in an A car park :o

    I had just pulled into a space and a lady pulled up next to me. She opened her car door and clashed it into my passenger side door. I was just checking my phone so wasn't looking up and it made such a bang that I jumped out of my skin.

    I got out of the car to find my door badly scratched and dented:o

    She then she denied it was her:eek:
    I asked her to open her door carefully towards mine and it matched the scratch exactly. But she was having none of it. "There's nothing there she said" and toddled off into A. I sat fuming in the car until she came back.
    I told her that I had taken her number and would contact my insurance company (I'm not but wasn't going to tell her that)

    " Do what you want" she said. She went on to say that hers was always getting knocked in car parks and anyway she used to work in a supermarket and nobody's to blame for any accidents in supermarket car parks:wall::wall:

    You couldn't make it up:o

    You know that feeling when the penny drops and you realise that you aren't going to get anywhere with someone:o

    I only wanted an apology :o

    It left me in a bad mood for hours:o

    No idea but hope he kept one foot on the ground:rotfl:

    I've decided.

    I'm not going to Harrogate tomorrow to visit W....it's just too far and there's a good chance they won't have any. Plus I've got loads off last time.

    Can you tell that I'm trying to convince myself:rotfl:

    So pleased lots of us got some:T

    That is actually outrageous :eek: I am so careful when I open the car doors, no wonder it made you mad. I would think about contacting the insurance company, its the excess though and the no claims bonus. Seems so unfair.

    We bought a new car 2 weeks ago and I park it as far away from other cars as possible, if it's in a supermarket it's usually in a corner where nobody else parks ;)

    Thought about doing the selfish 'Clarkson' parking where you see cars parked across 2 spaces!

    Are we all watching master Chef?

    Do we have any favourites?

    I'm liking the American lady who was on last night....was it last night?

    The one with the scarf around her head who made cake and soup to start
