When they say I can get a great deal on my car insurance, I say they have a choice of three. :-D

Somehow, they never know which car they want to insure either, even though I'm very interested in hearing what they have to offer!

When they ask about Mr Prevett, I say they have a choice of three. If you ask which accident they go quiet.

Well, a very nice young man telephoned me about it last night and how I could claim compensation.

Oddly, he didn't know that I was very drunk at the time and it was in a car I had stolen and hot-wired, that all my passengers were killed, and the passengers in several other vehicles and that I am currently expecting to receive a life term for it!
