probable write off on Thurs, now have the insurance comp from the at fault driver contacting me to sort the claim, do I use them or my own insurance as already started claim with them? why would I use his insurance?!

    because you need to claim on his insurance. Your company will do the work though. That's what you pay them for

    Might be an issue with your NCB if your insurance company is providing a hire car though.

    I find it harder to find stuff once i have tidied up.
    I sent ages yesterday looking for my long arm grips which i knew had been on my welding trolley for the last 6 months but as i had tidied up they had been 'put away'

    Well , I spent a good three hours in there and made reasonable progress, think I'll need at least another three hours at some point during the week but I'm feeling more positive about it. Go me !!

why does my mini run so well with a nearly scrap engine? almost no oil pressure at idle and more smoke than fire at an oil refinery! never heard an engine so smooth and eager to rev

    You're brave. If I had an engine like that, I wouldn't dare even think about it, let alone post the thought. Tempting fate on a biiiig scale! :-D

    without being the bearer of bad news, a 26 year old mini without an agreed valve will be written off, if your lucky it might not be deemed non-repairable and scraped.

    To be honest I'm expecting her to be written off so am prepared for the bad news, they said on phone will most likely be end result...If can buy her back will do but wait and see for that.
