OK we all know the ambulance service do a great job and I have had to call on them myself once or twice. However on my way to the Manx gp this year I had to take evasive action to avoid an ambulance that was going through a red light at a junction. He wasn't doing 90 or anything and neither was I cos I heard him coming . I saw him a bit late tho and had to anchor up a bit quick and the damn bike slid out from under.

WTF do I pay my insurance for if it isnt to sort that out for me. Heh am I a grumpy old man or what.

I probably will repair it myself in the end but the point was I do have legal insurance and its fully comp so why the hell should I be doing the chasing round. I feel bad about the fact that some other person needed that ambulance as it is. The ambulance guys were great and reckoned it would be sorted no problem, in fact it was them that encouraged me to put a claim in.
