At the peak of this campaign of harrassment I was getting as many as 10 calls a day. I began to wonder then if it would be easier just to say yes, the accident caused my pulvus compactus to be subluxated, go ahead, get my compo for me. I wonder how many such claims are thusly motivated and not simply by the greed of the claimant.Doorkeeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09833186676034988104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8299409348701300460.post-26331822118326302112012-10-22T21:50:03.553+01:002012-10-22T21:50:03.553+01:00Yep, like my son and his wife who have been living...Yep, like my son and his wife who have been living in Aylesbury for just over a year.<br /><br />PixieMumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14717092173188052675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8299409348701300460.post-3264700425440207382012-10-22T18:33:23.471+01:002012-10-22T18:33:23.471+01:00I'd love to draft in a wave of Costa Rican jud...I'd love to draft in a wave of Costa Rican judges for the greedy claimants.<br /><br />Fell off a ladder?
