There are still some very honest people in this world, and I am very grateful for that. We were away on holiday, in our lovely new car. After parking on the street in a lovely little town, we went off for a nice coffee and a mooch around the shops.
On our return, a ladt came out of a complementary therapy shop and informed us she witnessed another vehicle hit ours. We waited for the phrase 'they left without leaving their details', but in actual fact she said that they waited for ages before finally leaving a note on the windscreen.
The lady had taken the details of the vehicle anyway, and when we called the other driver, he was truly mortified and very apologetic. He was in a company vehicle, so luckily all was well in the insurance department.
Just to clarify, for those who don't know; if you run into a parked, unattended car, as long as you leave contact details on the vehicle or with someone nearby, you are covered - i.e you won't be prosecuted for leaving the scene of an accident.
So, we came home from holiday, now have a hire car and ours - which has a broken nose, is waiting for the garage to come and take it to be repaired.
