Carl 3 Report post Posted December 8, 2005 Insurance dude was quite nice would dread to think what it would be like if they weren't insured, they're basically left with the clothes they wore to work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carl 3 Report post Posted December 8, 2005 At this stage it appears to have been an electrical fault right near the gas mains. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ipwnyou 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2005 Holy sh*t carl, thats horrible, im so sorry to hear that. Do they know what caused it? Hope it wasnt arson.

Jazzbass 1 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 Man, that'd suck big time. Sympathy. Its hard to see positives, but it will allow your parents to start with all new stuff. But there's all that old stuff they would be attached to gone forever. Best part is - stuff is replaceable - its just stuff - people are not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hartage 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 We all think pretty much the same thing. Things are replaceable, People are not. Carls parents are pretty cool, so it really sucks to see this happen to them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bravo 35 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 That is the gay - at least it seems some photo albums survived. Its the things with sentimental value that matter. I have some photos and some of my grandfathers things - at the end of the day - they are the only things that would upset me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
