Now this episode is for eldest son who hits the big 17 very soon, if you remember we were actually talking about this, my boy and insurance, now if any of you find this on this board, I'll love you forever ;D  (because for the life of me I can't remember).....just a jog of anyone's memory it was the fact he was quoted £3000 for some pathetic car worth about £980. Well, well ;D...goes to find Found ;D jamesmayboard.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=press&thread=2219&page=6 |

Lew, would it be cheaper to put him on yours or Mr Lew's insurance?

Post by lew on Jun 20, 2009 14:53:01 GMT
It would and I may have to, but I have 100% on my insurance and the way he tells me I should drive, and I like to think I'm not too bad, he'll lose my points after a week.....so no at the moment.

This just in from Mr Fry's Twitter: Better stride off to the gym early today if I'm to make it to Surrey in time for Top Gear this arvo. Won't be a wet track, that's for sure.and Last time I drove the reasonably priced car round the track it was wet: though JC claimed only "mildly moist".I replied to him something like "Go so well they have to name one of them after you"  ;D I can't wait!
(haha someone just replied to the 2nd comment with "I thought the difference between wet and mildy moist was enthusiasm...") |

Sounds as though Stephen Had a hairy time doing the R.P.C..... from his Twitter thingy:
He has so far not revealed his time.

In about seven more years, this would come in handy for me, since my son will be 17 by that time. I look forward to tonight. |
