1249.0. "Hit and Run" by HAMPS::MADELEY_T () Mon Oct 08 1990 12:23

    Hi People,
    
    I'd just like to thank the kind, considerate person who did a hit and
    run job on my car in Hampshire House car park on Friday afternoon if you
    are reading this.
    
    It's the sort of behaviour you expect in an NCP - but I would have
    hoped we were above that sort of thing!
    
    Cheers mate!!!
    
    Spike.

1249.1	Leave Edu and what do you get?	YUPPY::SACKMANJ	I was dreaming of the past...	`Mon Oct 08 1990 14:17`	7
	Spike, Sorry to hear about the scrape, what's the damage? Any clues from his/her paintwork remains? At least the damage can't be as bad as the amount inflicted on my R5!!!! Jon.
1249.2	its a bit drafty in here!	HAMPS::MADELEY_T		`Mon Oct 08 1990 15:35`	15
	Jon, Looks like it will need a new door - find out wednesday when I take it in for an estimate. No clues to the identity - no paint left behind, but I'll take a look around the car park for incriminating dents and check with security if they have anything on video. Until it gets fixed I'll just have to get a bigger turbo to compensate for the modified aerodynamics. Cheers, Spike.
1249.3	Another kind person!	UKCSSE::RDAVIES	Live long and prosper	`Thu Oct 11 1990 13:12`	9
	I'd like to thank the S*D who dented the rear O/S door of my 3 weeks old Rover in the shire Hall Digital car park yesterday at going home time. (Yes I know it might have been a student, but I have to vent my spleen somewhere don't I?) Richard (Who may go looking for telltale grey paint on a bumper lunchtime.)
1249.4	guess where I'd like to stick the old aerial?	UKCSSE::RDAVIES	I can't trype for nits!	`Thu Dec 06 1990 16:20`	10
	And a follow up to .3, less than a month after having had the door repaired..... Some bS**D vandalised my car last weekend, whilst it was parked outside my house. Snapped off the aerial, and used it to scratch the bonnet and side. Result, same door needs another re-spray, plus the bonnet and back wing. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Annoyed of reading.
