Tales from Arling

"Did I ever tell you about the second time I wrote of my dads car?

It was 6 weeks after I got out of my cast from the first crash and he'd got an Alfa Romeo with the insurance money. I know it was 6 weeks because he would let me near it till then.

Me and three mates drove it to the corner I trashed the last one on.

They didn't believe that you could flip a car on that corner doing 40mph so I went round and I'm thinking I was doing 30-35mph, if I'm being honest. It didn't flip. But we did hit a lamp post and parked two cars.

Insurance wouldn't pay out the second time and dad never got his 10 years no claims bonus back."
