6 months ??
Is that normal?...or rather, does it ever seem to you that that sort of thing just gets bogged down in bureaucracy, time-wise?

He should have insurance, so we tracked down his insurers and spent a bit of time corresponding with them. Then it turned out he hadn't made a claim so we told him he needed to do it. Again he ignored us so after giving my client advice this is the route we're going down.
It could have been done in a few weeks if we wanted to push it through but there isn't a massive rush on this case.

Will he owe that amount personally? If so, i assume debt collection then get involved when he cant pay.Kwacky wrote:He should have insurance, so we tracked down his insurers and spent a bit of time corresponding with them.

Re: What are you doing today ??
yep, the debt is in his name so he needs to pay.
I am acting as debt collection by sending a stat demand. I don't need to do it as it's a court order he's not paid, but it's a final warning. Next step is bankruptcy.

Bankruptcy is prolly his best option, you'd think.....it's not the "end-of-the-world" scenario people think it is.

Re: What are you doing today ??
Went to a course today at work talking about allergens and making sure everyone understands how important it is etc.
Anyway on the way home I was giving it a bit and a silver Astra was hammering it up to me, he flashed his lights and I thought 'oh great' wait for the blues to go on, so I pulled into the middle lane. He rushes past me and gets stuck behind some traffic. He started to literally go half way inbetween the middle lane and the fast lane trying to push the car ahead to pull in to middle lane. No blues. No signs at back saying police. No sense. He was just a dick

But without the risk of serious injury, the loss of 2 years no claims, the damaged bike.............

Doin' nowt at all today.....air quality is crap thanks to all the fires, so instead I'll just sit at home & try to re-install the lungs I've been coughing up all morning.

Dunno?
I'm on the southern edge of LA County just inside Orange County, the fires are on the northern edge of L.A. and up....40-50 miles or so??
I'm crap at geography though...I failed my O level..failed the resit, then resat the resit & failed that too, so I have ample proof-of-crapness at geog.

Be surprised if there isn’t a app you can use D, we have one in Aussie called Fires Near Me, has alerts etc and predicted fire paths etc, very valuable during fire season here

Waah.....apparently EVERYWHERE is burning!! I'm doomed!!
I often tend go by time rather than distance when it comes to stuff like that. Jusy seems to work better.

Left the bikes at home today. We're supposed to get the tail end of a storm sweep through with wind gusts up to 90mph. I'm a cager for the day.

I've taken the day off, glad I did a cycling in what's outside would not be fun.
Supposed to be going for a run if I can be arsed to get my gear on.
