Default Not a good day

Just to add to our run of bad luck, this happens today..

My temporary garage got uprooted by this mornings storm and clattered most of the panels on the Dorchester.

Big thanks to Rogue for helping me dismantle the garage which was attempting to fly to Norwich

Evening Andy
That's awful.
Any chance that you house/car insurance might cover the repairs?
Regards David

I've put claims in on both David, having never claimed on any insurance in my life, what a ball ache it is to do, i have answered less questions when applying for a passport!

I am sure they will want to write the car off, as we all know

The irony is that I bought the garage to protect the car as it was nearly A1 condition!
