So there I was..

[tactcom7]

Sat in the back of me car, watching a house. When alongside pulls a nice shiny new BMW, 'You'll never fit into that space behind me' I thought. But to the guys credit he reversed in pretty quickly.

What followed next wasn't so impressive. He proceeded to put it into first (or possibly, Drive) and rammed into the back of me pretty hard. Couldn't get out the car for another twenty minutes so I just watched him and saw which house he went into.

So twenty minutes later I go to the house alongside me and knock on the door..

Hello?

Hi there, just wondering why when you drove into my car you failed to leave a note or anything like that...

Errr, no I didn't.

Yes, yes you did. I was sat in the back and watched the whole thing, I watched you reverse, I watched you drive into me, and then I watched you get out and rub (almost) all the paint of your bumper, scratch your head a few times and 'eff off inside.

Oh, right, yeah um I knew I'd bumped it but I wasn't sure how hard..

Mate you knocked me off the back seat, that's how hard you hit me.

(Cue concerned wife on doorstep)

What's going on??

Nothing dear get back inside! Look sorry mate you can ask my wife I'm normally a really nice guy this is totally unlike me, go on ask her.

No I'm good thanks...

Thing is I only got my car back today, someone drove into my bumper and drove off, I just picked it up from the body shop, not only that some skateboarders scuffed my courtesy car. (cue him leading me to the OTHER BMW parked opposite with said black scuffs on the side) It's just not my day.

So let me get this straight, TWO people have hit TWO of your cars and buggered off?

Yes

And you feel annoyed/pi**ed off/unlucky that this has happened?

Yeah it's devastating.

SO WHY THE HELL DO IT TO ME THEN??

Erm, ask my wife I'm nice, promise!

T*sser.

[Balky001]

Ok, so why couldn't you leave the car??

Oh, I see someone has already asked and you've almost answered

[tactcom7]

What do you work for the Social?

[FG1]

Well, I am sure you will be able to sort it all out through the insurance companies. I assume that you have business insurance ....

Private Investigator, was suppoooosed to be a funny story, must be the way i tell it,

[Specialone]

Still don't get why you couldn't get out until 3.30, how would 'they' know if you did?

[tactcom7]

well for one you don't want the person you're following seeing you get out of your car, or seeing you at all really. Plus the car is supposed to look empty from the outside. And you have to film a 'closing shot' when you leave, to prove you were there when you said you were.

[leebex]

lol, it seems the facts you couldnt/didnt give in the first post were generating more interest than the whole story :smt116

[Stuuk1]

Haha I see...!

I want to be a private investigator, how did you get in to that? Police?

:confused:

What if something really serious had happened would you have still sat in the car?

To be honest if I'd bumped your car and gone into my house then some bloke comes up 20 minutes later and tells me he was sat in the car the whole time without moving, I think I'd have told him to pi55 off.

Edit; do you know where I live?

[punyXpress]

Bet you looked inconspicuous clambering from front to back seat so you wouldn't be seen!

I know, how annoying :rolleyes:

No, when I came out the airforce I just fancied something different and did a course and then spent ages trying to find a job due to having zero experience.

No, not if it was serious, and fair enough, but if I had been able to describe your subsequent actions etc you'd had to wonder that I was telling the truth.

P.S No but I could find out ;)

Well I've been doing it a year and no-one's seen me yet (I hope) ;)

This is a job and a half! All you have to do is hide from people for a year :lol:

Do they say 'has anyone seen you yet?'. 'No'. 'Ok, well done carry on'. :lol:

[Fruity-ya-ya]

I don't know what you're moaning about, I can't see any marks!
