Oh my word Mr Teapot you poor thing!

Are you definitely ok? Had yourself checked over?

And poor Huey! If there is anything we can do to help please just say, really hope you can get him fixed

[baker_boy]

Totally devastated for you mate, that pickup was always my favorite, by far the nicest modified example I've seen. Doesnt really look all that bad, under all those scratches I bet the body work can be pulled/filled pretty easily and then maybe a new wing. Oh and bottom ball joint by the looks of it.
Atleast it wasnt worse for you! Dont let them scrap it!!!

Yeh, that was the reason and Mr Plod was very firm about it so they must be aware of the implications. Thanks for your offer Sean, I'll let you know. I just found he's gone to Wimple, not Wimborne, so that's not too far away near Exeter, not Dorset.

Thanks all for your good wishes. I feel a left & right pillock. Minimadjonesy will remember what I look like from the last time I er, made contact with something.
