So Annie finally made the earth move for Eddie. :-P

Glad everyone is OK, there is that awful sickening feeling when you have an accident. Last weekend I slid a rally car off the track into a ditch and there's that awful moment where you realise you are going to hit something and there's nothing you can do about it.

It's not great, I have a feeling the side of the house will need to be rebuilt.

Has the wall upstairs moved? It might just be a case of patching the damaged bit downstairs. Is it an external wall then?

The outer walk has moved in and the front of the house has moved a few inches.

The crash MOVED the front ofthe house? Then I'd suggest to spend some days at a relative's house while checking if the house is still a safe place to stay.

Ordinarily I wouldn't believe this, but my missus put our car in the lounge room about 6 years ago so now I would. Took out the front of the lounge and mounted the front porch to do it. Never underestimate the power of a V6 Quad cam Magna, it'll go thru a supporting wall.

As long as all are safe and well, any renovations planned now Eddie? We had all sorts done after our escapades, it was quite lucrative in the end.

Glad you r both ok.
I scraped the whole passenger side of my van along a wall the day before yesterday getting out of the way of another car coming hurtling towards me, must be a week for it!

Must be, Humby. I got Liberace'd on Springy road Thursday night. Cots the girl 800 bucks for a bumper respray too. I haven't had anyone hit me in over 10 years either.

Funny thing, she got out and asked if I stopped suddenly, to which I replied, well I missed the guy in front of me. Blondes....

LMAO never heard that before.
Glad Annie and GH are ok. You should dump another pile of bricks next to the damaged walls and tell the insurance assessor that it took out the extension as well ;) Litter in the corpses of a few AF figs as well for good measure?
