Thanks for the suggestions. I will make the amendments. 

Do you want me to repost it once admentments are done or start getting it ready for the email.

Ummm, please try incorporating your facts into the brand new template defence I've just finished writing and posted about just now!

It would be good to see how it works.  In your case you will need to use more numbers than just the suggested points 2 and 3 for your facts, but I'd like to see how you use the new template (no linky, go find!).

Thanks for the suggestion CM. I really like your new template and definitely incorporate the some of your stuff regarding the extra £60 but i want to try and keel it my own style and use your knowledge to makes sure it looks okay. I hope that's okay.

Yes that's perfect.  Better than using a template blindly.

At least the claimant/solicitor will not be able to trot out that tired old "the defendant has created his defence from the Internet"!

Ive never really understood that arguement. I am not a laywer, of course im going to use the internet to get guidance on the subject. And whether or not i use a template defence, as long as the points raised are valid in the case why would it matter? I mean, if i hired a lawyer, its not like the claimant could argue that i've only raised these argument because the lawyer has written them and not the defendant.

The internet is one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century, anyone who derides it is a fool imo.

It's particularly rich when their own claim and WS is 95% template in almost every case. But because these lawyers are 'guns-for-hire', often doing a 'one-off', only receiving their bundle less than 24 hours before the hearing, they may well be blissfully unaware of how easily their accusation can be fired back at them, with interest!

Both valid points and amongst the points I make whenever a claimant tries to use the "defence is bad because it is off t'Internet."
