Car Crash Skip Hire

I always used to think that the hiring of a skip was the reponsibilty of the supplier to look after once its been hired. In 3 months time it was the annual vegetable growing competition. I couldn’t wait, I was so excited by this!

I had terrible luck last year. The very night before the comp, a fox came and nibbled on my radishes which had the potential to win it! The fox left the raid on the nearby road after realising he didn’t like the taste of my prized radishes allowing passing cars to squash them into slush. This was the day before the big comp!

To avoid this happening again I started early this year and also created a disposable fence to make sure nothing could interfer with my treasures. I contacted a skip hire company to provide me with a builder’s skip so that I could get rid of old soil allowing me to lay fresh soil to help my vegetables to flourish. You see, i wanted to win so badly that i did all the work myself, with the help of the skip hire company.

I got the skip hire for 2 weeks. However as my driveway was a beautiful garden of petunias, I had to get the skip hire company to lace the skip on the highway. For this I required a permit, I was told. It didn’t matter though, I was going to win, it would be worth it.

My skip soon got half full, I had been busy all day and all night to get my prized possessions looking like I wanted them to. I was so keen to get the work done, one night I forgot to place cones and lights around my skip to make road users aware of it. After all there was a huge skip in the middle of the road .

I awoke at 1.53AM to a huge bang; I thought a plane had fallen out of the sky. It was only a top of the range Audi, slam dunking into my skip outside! I rushed out to help, dialling the police en route. The driver was still alive! Praise the lord! The superb design of the Audi had kicked in with various gadgets, to save from exactly this kind of thing.

the driver had no major injuries. He was taken to hospital, just to be sure, and I returned to my bed. First thing next moring I rang the skip hire company. Apparently it was my fault completely, as I houdl have made sure I had placed the relevant safety feature sthey had provided, every night.

I didn’t win the grand prize, and had to pay for the repair of the \Audi, and pay compensation for his whiplash. Told you I wasn’t lucky!
