Well where do I start, I got up this morning and looked outside to a lovely bright day, wife and son are going out later on so ill have the whole day to myself. Did a bit in the garden and arranged a game of snooker for the afternoon, everything is ticking over smoothly....Until the post comes and to my horror I find out I’m made redundant. No big surprise really engineering is on its arse at the moment, most of my workmates were made redundant in Jan so at least I got a couple of months extra pay. I decided to still go and play snooker rather than moping around the house alone, so cue in car and off I go, I get as far as the cash point to find it’s not working, so jump on the motorway and go to a bank near where I’m playing, cant park near the bank so just park round a corner up a side street. At the bank I see an old friend who I worked with years ago while serving my time and chatted for about 10mins before going back to my car to find the back door window busted and my cue gone!!!
I am devastated, I loved my cue, it felt just right and with the redundancy letter this morning feels like a right kick in the balls. Just tried the insurance and the excess on my policy is slightly more than the cue and case cost plus I would lose my no claims bonus, well its protected but it still goes up if you have a claim...what’s the point. Looks like I’m cue sharing and dole queuing for the foreseeable future.
