Default 2 Vehicles, 2 chips in windscreen on same day not possible surely?

Well driving my van this afternoon and a nice chip appeared in my windscreen, looks like a spiders web. Lovely don't pay for the van so nice jolly to the garage.

Just got back from Toy Story 3 and got one which looks like a breadcrumb on my car. Grr £10 excess to get it done. grrr.

Chances on that hey?

I've had a truck fitted with a new windscreen as MOT Preparation and had it smashed by a half brick about 100yards from the test centre and they are not on insurance,costing £250 a time---------Soul destroying

What are the chances of two punctures in different tyres on the same bike and on the same day.

Ask ManxMatt.

Nope it's an 03 plate dualfuel combo, 120k 2nd engine which is guzzling oil and down on power. But no "Capial Funding" for new vans because they are all in working order. And my van is one of about 30 of these.

Don't complain next time your Water Bill comes in becuase us maintenance guys work wonders with what we do.
