Erf...

Just had a car accident.

Before anyone panics, yes, I'm okay, the driver of the other vehicle is okay. That's what I'm most concerned with. The other stuff will be dealt with in the morning when I've got the other driver's insurance details and the insurance company it taking calls and so on...

Anyway, my car is a mess.

What happened? Coming up on the ferry that takes me across Poole harbour to home. I'm in the middle lane, someone else is in the left turn lane. They suddenly realise they'd gone the wrong way and swing round into me. I swerve too late, they're already in my side by the time I turn. I'm not sure if the car will be a write off or not - they've buckled a wheel slightly, caved in the wing and front passenger door and all down the side across the back door too. Torn the front off their car too pretty much. They admitted their mistake at least but I'm feeling a bit shaken maybe, but relieve no-one was hurt.

My poor car though.

It also screws me up for deadline week next week. Not sure yet if I'll be able to get a hire car.

Meh.
