At Least i have my health... - Ben Jay - 29-05-2012

So in the last 2 weeks my fiancé split with me.

We were together for 5 1/2 years.
Was expecting to start my life with her and every thing, I loved her with every thing i had.
We even had an engagement party with all our family and friends.

Its got messy with her as she wanted to keep things civil but some drunk text messages were sent and we had a big argument.


Then today on my way to work this....

damn dude, sounds like a shitter. hope things pick up for you soon mate, i know how it feels for everything to go wrong at once.


Re: At Least i have my health... - 4WayDiablo - 29-05-2012

That will certainly be a write off
Take it they pulled out in front of you?


Re: At Least i have my health... - Ben Jay - 29-05-2012

Yea. Was coming up the road (check the sketch) There was a line of traffic turning left and i was turning right further down. And she came out of the keep clear sign and went straight in front of me. No air bags went off though.

Bit of tcut will fix that.


Re: At Least i have my health... - 4WayDiablo - 29-05-2012

Dad just looked at it and he has said get a view of that junction on Google maps and has said show the impact points and final rest points

Btw he's a safety manager and crash investigator for Lang Mead farms :-)
He said its very similar to a case he had involving a very expensive Ferrari 355 and a tractor lmao
Although putting those into it it would be your car at fault, odd I know


Re: At Least i have my health... - Ben Jay - 29-05-2012

They have already called me to say they are at fault. Also the google maps is old and the junction had been changed.

The filter lane starts futher back down the road to where it is on the map

Top down satellite view? Just out of interest?


Re: At Least i have my health... - Niall - 29-05-2012

Look at it this way, when you get your payout you can buy a car that runs on proper fuel!

At Least i have my health... - Jake - 29-05-2012

Re: At Least i have my health... - Stephen - 29-05-2012

Unlucky mate :/ Life cant give you a shit hand at times

Try not to let it get you down and just thinking everything happens for a reason and this will only make way for better things Smile

And like you say, at least you have your health Smile


Re: At Least i have my health... - Scott - 29-05-2012

You'd have been fine if you had 4 pots...whistle






All jokes aside, I'm glad to hear you're okay as that looks pretty nasty. If your back isn't feeling good make sure you get yourself checked out very soon (i.e. within the next couple of days).
