Tuesday 11 August

So, got to the panel beaters at 7am this morning, as that’s when they said they’d be open. The man arrived at about twenty past seven to unlock the gates, and accused me of being early. I told him I wasn’t early, I was on time, which is something quite different, but which is a little-known fact. Anyway, eventually some other bloke had a look at the damage to my car, prodded and poked a bit (the car, not me), and said he’d send the quote to my insurance company. He said they should be able to fit me in in about six weeks.

Arrived at work after Stuart.
