Quote from: general_lee on March 26, 2026, 09:53:16 AMHad someone go into the back of me at traffic lights about 15 years ago. Now it was noticeable enough oul slap but there was zero damage on either car... could see the panic in your man's eyes lol but I obviously said not to worry and we both went on with our lives...

Another time I was the villain who bumped into someone on Tates Avenue... I cracked my number plate but again no damage on his motor... exchanged details etc but again nothing came of it.

A woman during Covid scraped up the side of my car and only I was in the car at the time she'd have drove off, she was oblivious  ::) we sorted it without going through insurance and I sent her the invoice and she paid me the money over Revolut.

In those three instances there was face to face communication. The one that really fucked me off was some idiot who according to the note he left on my windscreen, "thought" he had hit my car. This was a 17 year old shitebox runaround I was using as a stop gap. There was no visible damage on my car, and (according to the note) none on his either. I messaged the number and said no need to worry about anything as there was no damage. Later than year when I went for renewal, I couldn't get an online quote that would have shaved £100s off the previous years premium. When I queried it the person with less than perfect English informed me it was to do with a collision I had earlier in the year!

Yeah that's always the concern. That's what happened my mother in law I think. Problem is insurers are sitting on that info a lot more these days and then trying to spring it to get out of claims.

I assumed this was an April Fools story but it's in every paper today, unless they're all just falling for an Irish News prank.

That story doesn't make sense. If Armagh booked CH then it would be booked. United aren't there for a week. Armagh offered to re mark the pitches?  That bit stinks of April fools.

Sounds daft, but have it from a couple of good sources that its true.

Charlton House is an elite, world class, training venue. Real Madrid and Inter use it regularly. The national rugby team use it before every game.

They don't mark pitches wrong.

So to sum up.
-Armagh booked CH weeks out
-Armagh showed up to find it's already set up for Man U 10 plus days ahead.
-CH refused to set up as a gaelic pitch as booked
-Armagh did some fitness and fucked off home in a huff

Something is missing here. CH do waaayyy to much GAA business to dick them around like this.

It was on the Irish news website yesterday, which I thought meant it would be in the paper today, April 1st.
Yes I have been over thinking this far too much.
