How about an overflowing blocked sewer behind my flat! Smells lovely I can tell you  :'(  Won't get fixed until monday unless sewage is backing up into the toilet, not a great problem for me as I'm on the first floor  ;D  ;D

Cheers Jim

Not me, but at 2am this morning a car pulled into my road, 2nd attempt tho, coz on his 1st he smashed into a parked mercedes, then at the other end of road he forgot to turn left and and smashed into a ford galaxy parked opposite the junction. Oh then still drove off!!

I think he might have had a shandy or two.........winker  [smiley=thumbdown.gif]

Not too much damage to the merc, may get away with a new rear bumper.
The Galaxy looks like a right off  :o It was hit on the rear side with so much force it pushed it onto the pavement....tyre came off....alloy looks a mess...and a rear suspension bit dangling down....Id be suprised if it hasnt twisted the chassis.

Its not main road AA....its backstreets where cars park both sides of the road......and only room for a 1 car at time to either go up or down the road. Only place where there is double yellows is on the corners of the junctions......and parking is a premium around here......ive just come home and had to leave my meega in another street around the corner  :(

Mind you i wont park where he left his Galaxy during the winter.....Cars have a habit 1st thing in the morning of zooming down my road and then find out they carnt stop at the junction coz of ice on the road.....been quite a few cars sliding over the junction and ending up in that neighbours garden....after demolishing his wall first  ::)
