Where did you get knocked over ? i work in kingston and the daily commute into work is always alittle 'interesting' ! |
Wood Street (dual carriageway outside Bentalls), near Dexters. |
 I always park there when I go to Kingston! |
Watch out for Black Astras in future! 
Or at least make sure it's in front of an ambulance

May well invalidate their insurance and if you binned it they could be several grand down.......and no sale! |
I know all this, doesn't stop me being pissed off though  Wasn't especially blaming P&H either, more the insurers really, the whole system pi$$es me off!

Sorry to hear about your injuries Jo and Dunc (and anyone else I may have missed).
Just had a call from David. Bailiffs turned up at the flat this morning wanting to remove MY furniture etc as apparently the lodger has a debt of £1100 that he hasn't paid to the court. Apparently he didn't know about it. 
The bailiffs said that I've got to prove that all the possessions in the flat are mine - except I don't have receipts for a majority of the stuff, just an inventory.

AFAIK, they can't take anything unless you let them in, worth checking, but I don't think you "have" to let them in - not 100% on that... Perhaps a sworn affidavit with a solicitor on your inventory would be sufficient??

Gave Robert a call - says you don't have to let bailiffs in although they do have the right to force entry but they seldom do. Also, they should have left info as to how they can be contacted which David said they didn't. Will have to get in touch with the lodger to find out.
Hopefully, if I can speak to them I can find out what I need to do to sort it out. (Apart from paying the lodger's debt of course! He's asking the court if he can have time to pay it back - think the letters were going to an old address.)
