Got the hire car a few hours after approving the documents. Got a Vauxhall Corsa. Feels weird in a new car with different handling, but I guess it’s only temporary.
Used it to do some shopping.
Hire Car 3
Hire Car 2
Called the hire car company and they confirmed it would be no cost to me, even though the docs are worded really weirdly. Apparently, they are required to display the costs, even though they are going to be recovered from the third party.
We shall see if they try to screw me over.

Training in Quarantine – Day 28
3k walk today, which took me about 30 mins, then I decided to take up FitBit’s offer to a 3 month trial of Premium, which included access to FitBit Coach (which I used previously). Picked up where I left off and resumed my “Get Lean” program. Today’s workout was also 30 mins long and definitely made me sweat. God, I’m so out of shape… :-(
In other news, I finally got called by my insurance company and have so far spent two hours on the phone with different companies — the insurance company, the accident claims management company partnering the insurance company and the assessors who are responsible to checking whether the car is repairable.
My dad’s car, which was also damaged has been declared a writeoff, even though it suffered less visible damage than my car. Mine hasn’t been declared written off yet, although I’ve sent all the videos and photos I have to the assessors. We shall see whether or not I need to get a new car….
Training in Quarantine – Day 27
5k walk today, lovely weather, but surprisingly few people queuing. Got in to Co-op without anyone in front of me in the queue, Tesco Express petrol station had no queues, neither did Sainsbury’s. Tesco Express supermarket had 1 person in the queue who just entered as I walked past. Only a few people queuing at my local fruit n veg shop, and the one by Tesco Express supermarket wasn’t open today.

Short walk, but can’t focus with the wrecked car on my mind….
Wreck
Friday is normally considered a drinking day due to no work the following day. But with the pubs closed, you would think people wouldn’t be drinking.
Nope.
Someone was, and managed to pretty much wreck my car, and three other cars in the laybay where I park my car.

Training in Quarantine – Day 25
A rainy afternoon, so I went for a 30 min walk. In the rain, since I need the exercise, even if I’m going to get wet in the process….
Training in Quarantine – Day 24
Interrupted afternoon walk due to rain :(
Did manage to go out again after work, and do a short round.
Training in Quarantine – Day 23
Long walk round, and something happened to my fitbit on the route and it stopped tracking, leaving a half complete loop, even though I did finish it. Maybe it was because I decided to run a bit and perhaps the tracker stopped because it could see I wasn’t walking any longer….
Training in Quarantine – Day 22
Shorter walk today — went to check the nearby Aldi. Big queues there. Looks like most people are trying to queue there since it’s cheaper.
Sainsbury’s was no better — big queues there too. Didn’t check the Tesco Express petrol station, though.
