(Also I know the oddity of saying I'm trying to claim lock damage on car, but worried at risk of it getting written off instead. I'm seeing if they'll do it mainly as that means max £400 (possibly less) to pay, rather than the full bill of £1500+ on credit card, since I'm trying to avoid having lots of credit card debt again having not that long ago cleared it)
Was fully planning on driving to work tomorrow. Then remembered, not a good idea (or likely legal) to drive with no view out of left side, due to cardboard/bags covering the window xD I sort of half twigged that people do it all the time, then realised its normally the rear windows people do that with, not the front ones// xD
Getting a lift from the manager, which means I have to be in earlier/ stay later, but meh. Wont' know for a few days, most likely, what insurance will say. It's annoying not being able to phone and explain, since covid means they won't answer phones except for urgent/ mid-accident scenarios). Also means likely will be slower for them to get window fixed (which typically would be a few days only normally).

Insurance called me back today - getting window done under the glass cover, so its £115 (the excess for that on my policy), and doesn't affect the no claims discount/bonus. Locks I'll need to do myself, as otherwise I lose that discount/bonus, and face significantly higher rates next year, so long term it's better to take the hit on a credit card (n 0% interest offer), and likely gets it fixed quicker.
Just got to wait until Saturday (first available appointment with the approved glass company) for the window to get fixed, then I can see about booking in for the locks.
Fun thing is getting to/from work this week. No buses that early in the morning, and taxi's are extortionately expensive, so not really an option. So for the two days my boss (who would be working the shift with me) isn't in (tomorrow and Thursday), I have to walk the 5 miles in, then I can get bus 2/3 the way back, then walk rest of way home from there.

Got half way there, and realised there were buses running.
I did a derp, and forgot that the reason three years ago (when I last had to use buses) none could get me to work in time, was that back then I was starting at 6:30am, or 7am.
Now I don't need to start until 8am (or 7:30am as an 'early'), there -are- buses running. So I could have got the bus in xD (Both buses passed when there were not stops nearby, so they wouldn't stop even if I had flagged them down to ask)
However, now I know for Thursday (when it's forecast to be pissing rain)

Ooh, A Wild Santahat. (Sorry Red, but I will be calling yo that until Christmas is past xD)
Not much more to update. Waiting until Saturday to get the window fixed, then arranging locks to be fixed. Pottering about at work and such.
