shit pic but u can just about see my first attempt at developing square alloys.
really tho.......was drivin home today on my usual route and hit a fuckin massive pothole. it was rite on the top of a hump back bridge so you cant even see it comin from a distance.
I cant believe that the pothole just appeared over nite tho coz its huge, but i drive that way every day so i guess i must have got lucky before.
same thing happened to me last year and i complained to the council and they just ignored me but i'm not gonna let it drop this time.

I burst one of my brand new tyres back in February.
Wrote a letter to the council, and now 2 months later I'm getting compensation off the Councils insurers.
Hopefully pay the full £100

Get a claim form from the council offices, get a picture of the pothole, the damage it caused and send a copy of the bill - ask the shop nicley if they will make the bill out for more as the council will try to get out of paying the full amount.

How it going carl? Wheres this pothole then? You should get ur self a car like mine then u don't have worry bout that sorta stuff.
Got rid of the corsa and now got a astra estate cos we have another kid on the way so it's more practical.
Might be gettings a old mini near the end of the year for a little run around.
