    It never rains but it pours mate!

    Best of luck in the job interview, you are certainly due some run good. 

    I love the fact that after all the tough times you are encountering, you never lose your great sense of humour. That says a lot about the kind of bloke you are.

    All the best mate

    Wow.

    Blame Mrs Duck for the real-life bok.

    Hope you are all ok from the crash and that the insurance companies resolve any damage without fuss.

    Good luck with the interview.

    Most appropriate finishing 13th in Dtd yesterday....

    Insurance companies playing silly beggars, how could it possibly be classed a " Non Fault Claim" sigh...

    Fin 2nd in a PL08 tourney, should I go over to the dark side? ;)

    Lovely day for a drive.

    Get yourself a dashcam - insurance companies cant argue then (got mine for £40).
    Yes do come over to the "darkside"

    Thanks Jon, it went pretty well. I managed to make it there without incident thank goodness., I was there for 2 hours, must stop telling folk about my WSOP experience ;)

    Finally moving forward with the " accident " , we have just picked up the courtesy car, apparently our car will take at least 2 weeks to fix, the court case is on the 20th April so that may be the date when the girl finally admits responsibility for the collision.

    I was born on the wrong date, my Birthday is next Monday...DTD will have to take a back seat on that day, oh the dilemma...

    Had a good week, a really nice bloke came round and fixed my roof tiles, very professional and kind, you would do well to get in touch if you live in my area if you have any building works or stuff need doing, oh his name? You know him as Mumsie on here.
    It was my birthday on Monday, had most of family round and the good lady cooked a lovely meal for us, goodness knows how she does it, I struggle to cook for myself,Alex and the wife now I am the designated cook..
    I received some lovely cards, I always read the words on them, some of them brought a lump to my throat, I have this cheeky habit of lifting the card and shaking it to see if any money flutters out, kids know me by now so it doesn't bother them when I shake my head and tut :)
    I got a lovely card from both my sisters, in one it said get yourself something nice, I did the old shake the card thingy but no dosh fluttered, was a little bemused and wondered what she meant, perhaps I was to treat myself during the day? 
    I left it for a while but it was bugging me, I thought surely it wasn't in the envelope I threw in the bin? Should I check the bin...
    Checked the bin, delved through stuff, found envelope with a cheque inside :)
    I went for an interview today, I rejoin the ranks of the employed next Monday :) happy days.
    I told him we have a holiday booked and he was cool with that, also told him I have an injection every 3 months, cool with that also. My wife said she is proud of me, isn't it lovely when your loved one says things like that, my son helped me enormously with the 21st century cv malarkey, I'm a lucky man.
