It might polish out.

Hate coming across these on the highway,especially when there is someone in them,I wasn't the only one to turn around and come back to check
Rick, over here, the police who attend these sorts of accidents and, for whatever reason, leave the car there, wrap a strip of police tape around it to let people know it's been attended to.
Wish they would do it over here,I have never seen it happen,occassionally you will see a this vehicle has been reported sign on an abandonned or broken down car  :goodjob2: but have never seen anything on an accident vehicle  :disapp:

Nice collection, meehalych!

Are you an avid collector? I have always wanted to start but until I have my own house I would not have anywhere to display it. I'd love to have a nice Meranti or Imbuia wood cabinet with my collection one day - but I would collect all sorts of things such as stones and trinkets and stuff.

It is not the whole collection of mine, for I have coins from other countries, including the ones from Australia (thanks to Daz  :)).
No, as far as I am concerned, but I do try to replenish my collection with every opportunity. For the time being I think of getting  1897 (silver) and any golden Russian empire Ruble. Also a bond 2 Dollar  is on the list (think I will buy next week).

@ Misha

Nice collection, but wouldn't security be an issue in Russia??  :sweating:

+ I had a fairly good day today

- one of my work mates got run down by a Fork lift,he didn't look to well when I left,vbeen carted of to hospital

They are a pretty bad hazard if drivers aren't careful!   :sweating:  (I have a forklift licence)

Yeah. Can be dangerous. I have had a forklift licence since 1974.

Father cleared off (I was 14) 8 years later he asked me to look after his Father's WW1 medals.

Royal British Legion showed an exhibition about WW!, which included Royal Marine Grandfather's DSM, other medals, photographs & write ups etc  :D

Elder Brother saw it, rang me up, said he'd been left the medals in Father's Will.
I checked The Will (I had no idea) he came and collected them yesterday  :(
As usual, Wife gets cross with me (too soft with Brother seems to be her regular complaint)  :lol:
