Today, completely out of the blue, I received a letter from the local Magistrate Court informing me:
“On 19/10/2008 at Norwich in the County of Norfolk, Mr J K B used a motor vehicle, namely a VW Golf index xxxxxx on a road, or other public place where there was not in force in relation to that use such a policy of insurance or such a security in respect of third party risks as complied with the requirements of Part VI of the Road Traffic Act, contrary to section 143 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 and Schedule 2 of the Road Traffic Offenders Act 1988.
Compensation order made £175”
I don’t want to sound ungrateful but that won’t even cover the excess on the two insurance claims made to cover the £100,000+ damage, loss of business and rehousing.
Oh well, c’est la vie, innit?
We are thinking of giving the money to charity as we don’t want this dirty cash.
