other side of story

I've spoken to a Guy who works for Lookers Colchester, & the other side of the story, which hasn't been stated, is very interesting & explains a lot.
I won't publish details here, but p.m. if interested.

There's always two sides to a story and given this was in the Daily Mail, I'm not surprised. In fact, reading between the lines of the statement from JLR, I guessed that there was more to this already. Rolling Eyes

Did the chap also have a D3 and a Q7 before? Laughing

I was there and Miss Gallacher had no idea! Kylie was there too but no fashion blunder by her.

"Grimsby Property Developer"

Says it all. Rolling Eyes

What an utter, utter prick. I think I'll buy a new house from a local developer who's about to go bust then stick billboards up outside this joker's business demanding he sort out all the new-build settlement cracks because he uses the same make of plaster. Cock.
 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
