Gutted. It was the *first* night I’d parked my car outside my new house and woke up to find this…
I hadn’t taken out windscreen cover on my insurance policy, I even recently asked the company if I could add it on now and pay the extra but they were having none of it. Too bad! So, some w&*^#r had cost me roughly £90 worth of damage and there was absolutely nothing I could do about it.
I strolled down the cop shop anyway and had a word, got a lift back to the scene of the crime in a police car with a friendly bobby who told me he reckoned someone had a go at it with a handful of gravel, hence the small white marks visible in the photo above, but they must have been disturbed and ran off. Bloody b*$£!%d! Not the cop, the guy who done it! There’s not even anything worth nicking in my car!
Anyway, as “luck” would have it, the locksmiths who were in changing the locks on my house used to work for a windscreen company and gave them a quick call and got me a quote, they said they could fix it in a couple of hours. A nice chap came along a little later from Windscreens Direct and had some fun smashing the rest of the glass out before fixing the new one in. All done and dusted on the same day.
I don’t park directly outside any more, much as I’d like to.
