Good Morning Everyone,
Its dark and its wet outside here in Brackley this morning .
Reading some of the responses as to Parsley Box meals , I have enjoyed them as you have no need to freeze or fridge as you would with supermarket ones.
With the vacuum packing , a double seal , pierce as you would to put in a microwave, less time as per voltage of microwave say a 900w is maybe just over a minute but less than 2.
My other encounter yesterday , was with my computer , I had at the weekend did a disk clean up , and some of the websites I use slowed down or refused open , so I did a system restore , in the end it went into an area on Windows 10 as options as to recovery going into advance options once I had done my ID did a system restore and recovered those files , so I go onto the websites without any hitch at all.
Take Care,
Mick

Pleased you’ve got your car sorted Scentia. My interest is why he would chose to pay the neck end of £3k rather than have you contact his insurance? It may be he’s 21, driving a Ferrari and already on 11 points, but sounds as if he might not be insured at all? Did he only own up because he’s a neighbour? Do you have a ‘duty’ to ask the Police to run his number through the PNC?

Sorry if I sound OTT, but uninsured drivers are one of my pet hates. Glad you’re sorted though.

Georgesgran his car is taxed so must be insured as well, it is a brand new BMW very flash and yes he is only about 25. He could have a massive excess I suppose!

He probably has a large excess to keep his insurance down and being young, claiming on his insurance would make it jump considerably. At least he is paying up!
