Hi all,

Thanks for your comments, the more I thought about Jonesy was saying the more akin it seemed to what happened to me. She did get my address details and i hers, but not a phone number and she would not know who my insurer was...and then she took off, which she could be charged with leaving the scene of an accident without full disclosure (of course at the time standing in the pouring rain I went completely blank and could not think what to do!)

Of course I don't know who the bloke was and the guy who did come and tow the car from my house said that he would not be a towie as they have to advise you of several things, check to ensure the car is safe before moving..he did say it was likely he would have been watching and would take the car ...get it fixed and sell it on :-(

Had a few moments on the way to work even though OH was driving I kept holding my breath every time we stopped at a light or the traffic slowed down in case we could not stop .

Quiet weekend for me resulted....cleaned out daughters wardrobe while she visited her grandparents (boy she collects a lot of stuff!) and just general housework.

Hope everyone is well for a Monday morning (Monday here anyway!)

Oooerrr ! - There has been a catastrophy !!!

I have just 'polished off' 2 litres of white wine in about 15 minutes !!! :-0 :-0

Unfortunately it is all over the kitchen floor and NOT in my 'tum' !! ;-) :-D

Hubby bought one of those boxes of wine at the Supermarket this afternoon and I pourned myself a glass to have with my evening meal.

I put the box into the fridge and went into the Lounge while the meal was in the oven.

When I went back into the kitchen the floor was covered in 'water' coming from under the fridge or freezer !

The doors were closed so I had not left one open and I then saw a steady drip coming from the fridge.

I opened the door and found that the wine box was ' leaking for England' :-( :-( - It was not 'water', it was wine :-0 :-( and the floor was covered in it!

We soaked it up with lots of tea towels and kitchen roll and hubby had to mop the floor 'coz I am too 'wheezy' today :-(

You can tell he had never used a mop before as he took it straight uot of the bucket and onto the floor without wringing it.

The floor is even wetter now but at least it is clean ;-) :-D :-D

Have come up here to let it dry before I can go back in there - Dinner will be rather late today ;-)

I poured the remaining wine into a water bottle and there was only about 1 litre left :-( :-(

If it wasn't for all my 'meds' I might just drink the lot!

Glad you got all the carpets done Cynth - you must be worn out !

Gee Report 12 Aug 2013 18:37

You should have soaked it up with clean cloths, and rang it out into a big jug!

You could have regressed, to 'blankey days'....sat and sucked on it

I bet your kitchen smells lovely :-0

Dea Report 12 Aug 2013 18:45

It 'did' smell like a brewery Ginns but it smells of floor cleaner now ;-) :-D :-D
