I don't know why you're so happy, Julian - somebody's nicked the top half of your car!

RE. the seatbelt - with my weight, plus I'm assuming the pre-tensioners fired to pull me down into the seat, it was quite a pull on the seatbelt - rathen like being strapped into a fairground ride, only tighter!
Have sorted a new car today - a humble Civic 2.2 TDi - can do my bit for the environment for a bit, claw-back some money from the Chancellor (who is he these days?) and save on fuel bills - a bit boring, but the insurance will be cheaper and I don't fancy a sports-car again for a bit.....
