Some Civic you have there -have heard of radio active fall out but Civic hair fall out is really something

Topcat · 12th January 2007, 08:51

I just spoke with the Manager at B&Q, he has told me to get a couple of quotes to get the damage repaired and they may foot the bill

Shame it happened, but sounds like a good result.

Better than my result at B&Q. Two gorgeous girls said they would help load my car and cleaned my windscreen as well. They were stunners, very tight low cut tops. Phew! I offered them a tip but instead they asked for a lift to the next B&Q store the other side of town. They had been so helpful I couldn't refuse.

On the way there they started larking about with each other and then one of them got in the front and started on me, whilst I was distracted her friend stole my wallet.

I pass this warning on as it happened to me on the 3rd, 5th, 8th and 10th.

I will be over there again as soon as I can buy some more wallets!

That seems like a pretty good result, I'm quite surprised by that to be honest, most business claim no liability for damage/theft etc in their car parks. Hope they pull through for you!

They do have a disclaimer in the car park saying they are not liable for any damage etc, but my arguement was that they should have had someone in the car park collecting the trolleys as it was so windy (although there were only 3 trolleys there) lol , ah well if you dont ask you dont get!!

czechplastik · 12th January 2007, 21:39

Precisely, same with my Bday! Fair point, they own the trolleys at the end of the day!

No, I don't say so.. I am aware that no matter how young a brain feels, the body sometimes does not agree...
