My Poor Red Babe...

WRONG ESTIMATION and my carelessness caused this "Injury" to my car during lunch time. As I was manoeuvring a corner to park inside the IRC compound, I thought I could avoid the divider at the entrance... thought it would be "just nice" until I heard a "bong" and some scratching sound.... aikkksss.... too late, damage was done.

My lunch appetite was gone in a whim! The scratch was quite deep... even polishing will not help to take away the "sore".... haiyah.... one lesson learnt.... I must not be too lazy to reverse! One good thing though... no appetite then, less food intake... sigh...


my poor injured red babe....

  13. hahaha,,, what is your car nombor, must go and tikam lah,,,,,when i kena, i pay half of your repair bill,ok?

    anyway i dont wager on numbers,you know sometimes we cannot be overcarefull when driving,hence we lose sight of the little details, you know what i mean?

    Ok, to be serious,leave the scars intact,they look rugged on your little babe and they pose as a deterrent to other drivers not to come close to you,,,lol

  14. oh dear. luckily you are ok and nothing serious :D

  15. Good idea, Eugene..leave the scars on as a warning, hor? meanwhile, yes, cos it is not cheap to repaint the whole stretch.. :)

    cindy, dotn be shocked.. i m more or less prone to the scars already..

    yes, Barbara, as long as no injury to the driver and passengers, i am thankful..

  16. Oh dear! Not your day, I guess! But in any accident, I always praise the Lord - as long as the people do not get hurt! That's the only thing that's important! Other things can be sorted out sooner or later.

  24. I understand your feeling. Im sure it cost money to go to the shop.
    Our car has scratch too when hubby was about to park beside the house buss infront of the house.He underestimated hmmm..
    We both were sad and went to the bed without talking/quite . so in the next morning we went to the shop asking how much it cost for the repairation, but it was so expensive even the insurance will pay 65%.
    It is only a little scratch but it cost so much.
    The good thing the service man who was in charge was on his vacation and they asked us to come back this august for repair., so we went home driving our car.

    But when we arrived home, we changed our mind, instead of paying other people for the reparation , we are going to buy a color and repaint our car instead
    In that way we can save much money.
