martin 332 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 I went up to clear the truck out(under strict supervision as it is still being retained)and took a few pics while I was there,and I must admit that I wasn't aware of the amount of damage that was done to it.After all I had only been able to look across at it while I was laid in the road,anyway here it is........... I must say that it brought it all back to me looking at it sat there on three wheels,and I still get nightmares of the impact every night,and on the way to the storage unit we had to go past where it happened and that did give me a shiver I can tell you.I am however bodily getting better daily,although I do have a bit of whiplash in the right side of my neck and the right shoulder is still very painful,but I am getting there.

secretagentmole 1,701 Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 A Saxo did that? I thought they made them out of recycled baguettes, he must have been doing a Meatloaf when he hit you... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
