It was the red mist which clouded his view

I have bad luck, or people in surrey and hampshire cannot drive,

no, anyway shouldn't you be offering advice to the OP?

I did he took the hump tho..

oh well his loss...

theres no question about blame, the bus hit the van which was parked and it was captured on CCTV or more the fact the bus trying to get away was captured as it was hooked up so to speak  he had to reverse to get disconnected.

 

Just the whole process is so dam slow even though they accepted liability its still not settled in full and because iof the way the system appears to work I was surprised and have the ombudsman involved not that its done anything more thamn get me better informed since dragging them in.

 

Its sad but if it had been my fault it would have progressed much quicker. Not sure how to factor that into looking for insurance, lets face it accepting liability which the bus company did (even though that took about 4 days to show on the system) you would have thought it would make things easier not harder.

 

as for the OP, starting up isnt easy and there has been some good advice on here, between the thread filling.

Maybe he has gone away to digest the information and do his sums?

I dare not get one

I've had them for years, just bought a new one. I've been lucky enough not to need it in anger, but I am aware a large percentage of the time I'd be crawling through the wreckage to eat the sd card.

lol yep

Some good answers here!

Fair play if you want to give it a go on your own, wish you the best of luck. But agreeing with ElecTech asking such basic questions almost seems like you've barely looked into it. I haven't had as much experience as most people on here but still have come across tons of people who have tried various ways of starting up. Almost all have failed. The ones who haven't only haven't due the people they no, who've managed to get them bread and butter work. Even now there barely breaking even. It's always nice to think about yourself starting up because you always think you could do so much better but it's such a big risk which will almost certainly end up going wrong. Guess it depends too on how much you wanna make, earning yourself a nice wedge or getting the big bucks.

But wish you the best of luck. I'd much rather keep learning, be the best I can be, own a house or 2 and go on a couple of nice holidays a year keeping the Mrs happy.

Holy cow only read the first page before posting.
