    When Diver tried to cut his hand off with a saw he spent long nights on tpd while the drugs kicked in. You are always welcome there.....

      Wasn't it TPD that drove him to chop his hand off in the first place?

        Sorry to hear that OH. Bloody nasty.

        And it's a timely reminder for me (and others) to take it easy on the old motorbike (and bicycle) for those very reasons.

        Hope you recover as soon as possible.

                Serious question...
                I'd expect a company to be similar to a self employed person in that regard.

                I may be completely misguided, but OTOH if a muppet drove their car into an Eddy Stobart lorry destroying £1 million of cargo I'm pretty sure Eddy's insurers would look to recover that loss from the other party's insurance, and I see no reason why the liability would be different if they weren't insured.
                While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                  Sorry to hear the bad news. Glad to see you are still alive could have been so much worse.

                      get well soon.

                      plenty of time to study something new.
