Northamptons roads are crap at the best of times so after this cold spell, they are now worse than ever

Birmingham doesnt seem too bad though.

At 3.45am this morning on my way home from the night shift I thought I would take the scenic route home through cannock chase past shrugborough hall, I was met with a challenging obsticle, a herd of deer all over the road. They were in no hurry to move either.

As I was in the cage I admired the spectacle, they all had their winter coats on aswell.

I've heard a few stories of bikers being taken out on that streach of road, aparently they make a mess of anything that hits them!

yes my old boss crashed a van in to a deer before, living in the sticks like he did, the deer just got up and walked off, while my boss was sat there with a written off van with an air bag in his face. well not quite written off but there was a fair bit of damage considering the deer walked off.

Bugger!
Can't go to work tonight cos the guy I work with can't get his car up his hill.
It's not good, no work no pay, it's enough to turn me to the bottle

That'll do for meeeeeee

my mom just rolled the suzi grand vivara shes fine but the car has seen better days...
it didnt land on its side or roof like you would expect it landed on its wheels and has gone all the way round if i could get to where the car is being picked up by the police from i would get a picture for you guys so now me and my mom are off work until she gets a new car. And she thought i was going to be the one too crash it. good thing its fully comp.

Glad your mums ok. No doubt will be in need of a hug from you.

Most, but not all fully comp car policies, will provide a courtesy car. Usually next day too.
