When Everything Just Falls Into Place............ Tis Caturday Night Here In Koala-Land, And GLEN Was Sitting In The Garden, Watching The Falling Stars And The Navigation Lights Of The Occasional Jet Plane Whilst Sipping His Favourite Red Wine. The Blissfull Silence Was Broken By The Sound Of A V8 Car Getting Seriously "Into It" On The Gravel Road Leading To The "Pallas De Glen". Then Suddenly There Was A Series Of Bangs And The Sound Of A Very Nice Holden Commodore Going Through My Boundry Fence.... Drove Down To Check It Out And Here Was About 70 ft Of The Fence Missing And Yellow Fibreglass, Trim, And A Headlight In My Paddock. From The Unique Colour I Knew Who Owned The Car So I Rang His Doorbell, And Suggested It Would Be Much Appreciated If He Were To Fix My Bloody Fence. He Pleaded Total Ignorance To The Whole Event, So I Left And Went Back To The Scene With A Spotlight, And Guess What I Found, The Centre Section Of His Fibreglass Front Roll Pan With His Number Plate *Tag* Intact...:2thumbsup:. As I Type This There Are About 5 Torches Flashing At The Scene, And My Guess They Are All Looking For That Elusive Plate.... It's Truly Amazing How Stargazing With A Glass Of Wine Can Develop Into A New Thread On Hip Forums.... Cheers Glen.
If My Fence Suddenly Gets A New Lease Of Life, Then He Get's His Plate Back And The Whole Matter Is Forgotten.... Cheers Glen.
Glen I am glad you found the plate and all the paint and fiberglass. Too bad for him that he did not think of retrieving it earlier. Hope you enjoyed the remainder of the evening.
All Is Quiet On The Western Front, The Fence Is Still Flat, And I Still Have The Front End Of His Car In The Back Of My Ute.... He Must Know I Have The Number Plate Because There Are No Debris At The Scene, Meanwhile His Car Is Parked Hard Up Against The End Of His Carport So You Can't See The Damage From The Street.... Cheers Glen.
Hey glen, you could just go back to him and say "I have your number plate I know it was your car", Perhaps you could share a story of something silly you have done and then how you also done the right thing, tell him you don't care about how it happened, that you just want your fence fixed up, Just a thought, Enjoy your new fence,
When I saw the title of this thread, thought it was going to be about accidentally leaving catnip in your underwear
NEWS FLASH... You Can All Sleep Soundly Tonight, Knowing That The Driver Of The Car Fixed My Fence This Morning, The Drinks Are On Me...arty:arty: Cheers Glen.
