I dunno, coincidentally he has showed up in Geek Day

Think it took him a bit longer to get back to Hull from Manchester due to the front end damage his car has received

Can you claim any business interruption from your insurance?

First pic i thought - doesn't look too bad

Second pic - Ouch

Third pic - Nasty

Looks like the wall has failed in areas where it's been toothed in too.

I don't know the shop layout (obviously) but given you sell nice pretty white frocks do you think will be able to continue trading through the repairs?....things are going to get very dusty pretty soon and I've never seen a job like that done without contamination spreading.....

I see a loss of business claim coming a long in the near future

Edit: POP beat me to it

Thankfully all the damage is in one small room (if you look at the pic below, even though the design changed after this, its basically the small room to the upper right).

So hopefully that door can be sealed and no dust and shit will spread. My issue is how we can secure the shop whilst this is being done, as looks like that whole wall is going to have to come down and go back up.

That could be done in a day couldnt it? Not 100%, but enough to keep it secure. We had somebody at my old job reverse into an outside wall in a fork lift. It was rebuilt in a day no bother.

I hope it can, but it looks a bigger job than it seems as is a much bigger area that needs redoing than it looks.

Has it been repaired before? or are the different coloured bricks just pushed in a bit making them look different?

Was a door there when we took over the property, was blocked up about a year ago (shop only opened up last May).
