    This is a great comedy show. :rotfl:
    A man walked into a car showroom.
    He said to the salesman, “My wife would like to talk to you about the Volkswagen Golf in the showroom window.”
    Salesman said, “We haven't got a Volkswagen Golf in the showroom window.”
    The man replied, “You have now mate".

    Probably the latter of the two options.
    Yes, I thought "absurdly melodramatic" was the more likely, too.

    You're probably 40 years old so the word 'spin' isn't familiar

    That word and expression is a hell of a lot older than you kiddo. :D

    When part of your original post is complaining how a £300 bill has taken you into horrible debt and is ruining your credit record, then...

    You either need to seriously reprioritise your discretionary spending, or you're being absurdly melodramatic. Which?

    Actually, given that you're complaining about people recognising you after you voluntarily sold your story into the national gutter press, then...

    He's edited the OP but I don't know why it's a £300 bill. £150 for the recovery and if he collected it the next morning even if they charge him storage it would be one day.

    Probably the latter of the two options. £300 is still £300. I ain't going to oppose paying it if i wasnt at fault. That's anoher pair of trainers !!!!!

    £300 on trainers yet you drive a 10 year old car and you're trying to hide the age of it.
