    Grrr not a good Sunday (Mrs Car Smashed Window)

    Got up knock on the door 10.30am guy standing there

    Him "is that your car"
    Me "yeap"
    Him "Drivers windows been smashed"
    Me "Ohhh £$%^ thanks for telling me"

    Goes out takes a look yeap its smashed looks a bit iffy and what surprised me the alarm didnt go off

    Small ish hole in the middle a lot of glasss still in frame but in 1000s of pieces Mrs phoned police as nothing was stolen thankfully as 3 baby seats were in the car so oh ok here the crime number

    Phoned insurance got a phone call back for fitting new window we are very busy so can someone come about 4am to fit it

    Errrrr no not really can you do it a better time oh ok we be round about 8am hopefully

    It took me about 2 hours to get the glass out the window and off the road, while sweeping the road found a small ball bearing havent look in the car yet thats the next thing to do

    No other cars damaged but might have to move my car and put the Mrs car up the drive and mine on the road

    Still waiting for the man to turn up and fit new glass

    He phoned up this morning stating he had to pick the glass up in Manchester

    So I wonder how he would have got the glass if we said ok get here at 4am

    Gonna leave it for a while and then tell the Mrs to phone and find out wtf is going on
