Title: Who or what has annoyed you today?
Post by: Paul_Rolfe on August 13, 2009, 09:04:10 pm
Some old bat said that my water pressure was 'too much' for her seals and made them leak. I had to humor her and do them trad but it made me mad! Realy slowed me down.

what annoyed me was that I received an email to say my July commercial work payment had been BACS into my account dated 10th  but when I checked it hadn't  ( again )

on a brighter note I picked 3 large houses  ( £80 )    so alls well that ends well

Customer who watched me clean then doesn't answer the door when I knocked. I cleaned three more houses before I called back then he farts about looking for the cheque book, he's just about to sign when his phone goes off so he walks off, answers it and leaves me waiting while he has a chat.  >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

you are reversing? Then thats your fault. The onus is on the reversing party.

She could actually claim from you.. and win.

You would have to proove that, she could say you where still reversing into her as she drove past..

Witnesses (independent), cctv required.

Likely 50/50 claim.

Perhaps you would be better of saying i was pulling into (forwards) a parking space when i realised i would not be able to park in it and stopped.. then someone went past behind you (they didn't wait for you to complete your manoeuvre) and hit your car! whilst damaging theres.

Dont say you were reversing at all!!!!!!!!!
