stehaggan Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 The only good thing about today is I "acquired" my 3 new cream legbars. Other than that, i found that the recent torrential rain and wind damaged my WIR roof overnight and the run was like a swamp. So i shot home for the drill and leaving my street, a little bit too eager, SMASH!!!! into the automatic bollard, I ripped half of the front bumper off and pushed the radiator back.. luckiliy i think its just dents in the radiator but now i have to have it all repaired plus i cut my finger open, when trying to cut the hanging off part of the bumper... Plus for the first time ever, I had a potential eglu person coming to see my set up and had to cancel.... arggggggghhh very very sorry siobahn.... I just wish I could rewind to last nite, go to sleep and wake up again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
