Having to fill in a claims form after a motor accident is never a laughing matter. But we couldn't help chuckling at the comments that Co-operative Insurance Services recently sent us, and which they insist were made by real claimants.
Here is a selection: “The guy was all over the road. I had to swerve a number of times before I hit him.” Hmm, sounds pretty callous to us.
“I saw the slow-moving, sad-faced, old gentleman as he bounced off the bonnet of my car.” A surprising amount of detail for an accident that must have happened in slow-motion.
“I was on the way to the doctors with rear end trouble when my universal joint gave way.” Oo-eer, missus, as Frankie Howerd (pictured) might say.
We're still not 100% convinced that these are not urban myths, but they are fun to repeat.
A quick poll around the office revealed the following two favourites: “As I turned the ignition, I glanced at my mother-in-law and headed over the embankment”; and “My girlfriend kissed me, I lost control and woke up in hospital”.
It's the perfect way to acknowledge hard work, inspire your team, and network with industry leaders.
Crucially, as many of our attendees have done before, you can use your table booking as the perfect, hassle-free Team Christmas Party, combining prestige, celebration, and a memorable night they'll talk about all year!
