Car update

I thought I'd better give an update on the car situation. The police have never had the courtesy to ring back and because I didn't think to get the details of the officer attending the scene, I don't know which station to ring! All is not lost however, as the AA rang last week and to cut a long story short, they have put me in touch with their solicitors who are pursuing a personal injury claim on behalf of Rebekah and I. Thankfully, Elizabeth has shown no nasty effects of the crash and Rebekah is much better although still suffering with a headache. I, however, have still got neck pain, which by the end of the day has ususlly extended into my shoulders and back. I have taken painkillers, but anyone who knows me will know I have a habit of falling asleep after taking them so they are a definate last resort!
The car is still awaiting an Engineer to view it and formally write it off so we're no further along in that direction.

You may remember I'm taking part in a newbie CJ on UKS and as I haven't posted any pics of my entries for a while, this seems a good idea to catch up with them. This one was on the theme of 'my style' which I found quite hard as I don't really think I have one yet!!

Smashing!!

I can't believe it's two months since I blogged! Time flies eh?

Had a difficult day yesterday cos Me and two of my daughters were caught up in a police chase. The van they were chasing clipped my offside wing and just as I was thinking "Oi, what you do that for?", he deliberately reversed into me to try and block the road for the persuing police car. I carried on driving and pulled over in a safe spot so the police got past. I found out later that they had been chasing them (there were three in the van) for several miles and eventually the van reversed into the police car and they escaped on foot. Thankfully, we are all ok apart from very sore necks. We were checked out by the Paramedics at the scene and told to go to the hospital or GP if symptoms got any worse so we'll probably go to the Drs tomorrow just to be safe.

Here are some pics of the damage:
